Does anyone know how to update a UICollectionViewDiffableDataSource synchronously?
I need to do this, all on the same frame:
- Update the data source without animation
- Compute the difference in content size
- Scroll up to compensate for the difference (without animation)
- Scroll down animated

Swift footgun: Dictionary.updateValue(forKey:) and Dictionary.removeValue(forKey:) return the old value, which means if you have nested collections, this will frequently cause a COW. Use the subscripts accessors.

I’ve long been opposed to prescriptive rules for structuring programs, but if there’s one thing that I keep coming back to as my guiding rule it’s to write all code as if it’s designed to be deleted and replaced.
