I thought (and still think) Objective-C is quite nice. Kinda hoping my employer wants to port (wrap) it’s C++ based library to Objective-C (and Swift) in the coming year. I’d be the primary guy doing the work and I’d enjoy it :)
FWIW, I'm a non-Apple developer: never wrote a single line of code for any Apple device for production. Ported some of my libraries over to Mac OS about a decade back, but that was it.
