purely anecdotal but i've never been able to code any mac apps because i refuse to create an icloud account (which means i can't access the mac app store to download xcode to work on obj-c).
its not just an apple thing. never been able to program c# for the same reason. any time there's some sort of account signup or license needed to code something, i refuse to participate.
python, golang, rust, etc. don't have any stupid hurdles to overcome so those are technologies i use.
