I also have a dim view of Combine and Swift's shitty observation regime, but what does its concurrency have to do with it?

[easeout]

Swift Concurrency as a feature set includes async/await and async for, which solve a large part of Combine's same problem with better safety and less setup/teardown. These days Combine is still useful, specifically for multiple observers and several cases of adapting to older event publishing sources.

Combine is for setting up observers to changes, whereas Concurrency is for async operations. I don't see the relationship.
