Really sad that iOS Dev Weekly was once a great newsletter, but it's new owners are happy to publish AI slop and link to AI slop articles. I used to look forward to the newsletter every week, but now the only thing written by humans is the sponsor copy so I finally unsubscribed. 😔

@mergesort it was so awful to try to read today ☹️
@mergesort Yeah, I could barely get through the first couple paragraphs.
@mergesort This week’s was my last straw. I’m not the greatest writer but I find myself to getting mad enough to blog against the rising tide of crap. I believe LLMs can be very helpful but too many people seems to be operating them with blind trustand no proofreading

@mergesort Ya, it was pretty bad - I wonder if it’s a translation from a different language?
@mergesort same. This issue was so bad it finally pushed me to unsubscribe after years of happily reading each issue.
