I used to too, it took me a while to switch, but now I see the benefits. Obj-c does give a lot more freedom, and sometimes you still need it, but what initially felt restrictive does actually lead to less buggy and predictable code, and some protocols like codable cut out massive amounts of code.

I still rely on some stuff like GCD that isn't very swift like, there still isn't anything as fine grained in Swift, but I'm liking combine in some cases.
