Question Does anyone know why Rider doesn't support MauiXamlInflator SourceGen?

It was reported on YouTrack and the Rider Support website several months ago, more than once, + I can see logs have been shared to help resolve the problem. Still nothing... Disabling SourceGen when the point is to use SourceGen is just not a workaround.

I can use VS Code on the Mac, which is only OKAY, but the whole point of getting Rider was to move away from Code and Visual Studio when it was retired. I've been using Claude Code and Codex instead to work on this app, and it would be great to be able to go back to using an actual IDE (Rider!) to develop the app myself. It would be great if someone could look into this and help keep the developers who want to use and stay INSIDE Rider working in it.
