What about web views? WKWebView? SFSafariViewController?

The bug is in SwiftData’s ModelContext initializer implementation. The initializer checks whether it is running on the main dispatch queue and if so, configures the context as a main context rather than a background context. More details in FB13399899 (Open Radar ID 5518888167014400). Here is my workaround: extension ModelContext { struct UncheckedSendableWrapper: @unchecked Sendable { let modelContext: ModelContext } /// Creates a background context. /// /// - Remark: This method works around FB13399899, which causes `init(_:)` to sometimes configure the instance /// as a main context. This method is marked `async` and not `@MainActor`, which guarantees that the method will be /// called off of the main thread, working around the bug in the initializer implementation. static func makeBackgroundContext(for container: ModelContainer) async -> UncheckedSendableWrapper { let modelContext = ModelContext(container) return UncheckedSendableWrapper(modelContext: modelContext) } } actor MyModelActor: ModelActor { … init(container: ModelContainer) async { let context = (await ModelContext.makeBackgroundContext(for: container)).modelContext } … }

Same for MusicKit.

I have the same use case where I only want rows to be selectable in edit mode. I solved this by checking whether edit mode was active before passing the selection binding to the List. For example: struct ContentView: View { let items: [Item] @Environment(\.editMode) private var editMode @State private var selectedItemIDs = Set<Item.ID>() var body: some View { NavigationStack { List(items, selection: isEditModeActive ? $selectedItemIDs : nil) { item in ItemView(item: item) } .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { EditButton() } } } } private var isEditModeActive: Bool { return editMode?.wrappedValue == .active } } This approach works. However, be aware that it does currently trigger a SwiftUI bug where the List no longer shows its multi-select checkmarks in edit mode. I reported the bug in FB13434460 (Open Radar ID 5544045669515264).
