I actually prefer Objective-C to Swift.
What got me over the line was optionals and protocols + generics, the safety and expressiveness combined will eventually (hopefully!) win you over!
Does anyone else look at Objective-C code, and just want to puke?
It’s not puke inducing, but it is verbose. The language designers just took a different approach to how to write code. Just for some background, it came out at a similar time to c++. Both were designed to be a ‘better c’
In terms of reading code, its verbosity mainly affects the horizontal dimension, which is strongly mitigated by the proliferation of large widescreen displays.
In terms of learning the language, the verbosity combined with the autocomplete arguably reduced the need to continually refer back to documentation, as the verbose method (message) names were oftentimes self explanatory.

I prefer to keep the dynamism over unreadable fp "expressiveness" or safety that was not needed in the first place.
