Support Apple Unified Logging
Do you want to request a feature or report a bug? Feature
What is the current behavior? Only supports NSLog on iOS
What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior? Support Unified Logging
Currently does the iOS sink write to the Console, rather than actually writing to NSLog?
From what I can see here NSLogSink.cs L38 it is just simply writing out to Console.WriteLine()
They are one and the same. At least they were when the code was written.

Well, Console.WriteLine() will forward there, yes, but you can't specify log levels that way.
iOS (and other Apple platforms) generally supports this (for example, debug logging), but I couldn't find any facility in Xamarin to map those low-level functions. (Here's a thread about it.)
Just wanted to clarify for posterity that Unified Logging on Apple platforms isn’t calling NSLog.
@allenhumphreys I made a sink that calls Apple’s APIs. If someone is interested, I’ll make the repo public.
@chucker : Does the unified-logging sink works with .NET core ? And yes, please make it public. kind regards, rwelz

I don't believe it's possible yet to target Xamarin stuff from .NET Core?

@chucker I just came across this - would you be interested in contributing that sink into this repo so there's one place for all xamarin sinks
Given Xamarin has been EOL'd, and we're at two years since the last commit in this repo, it's probably best at this point to organize new mobile sinks around their respective APIs in new repositories.
I'm running through closing stale issues, and expecting we'll end up archiving this repo in the not-too-distant future, but if there's some anticipated way forward I'm unaware of please give me a shout :)
Continuing discussion in https://github.com/serilog/serilog-sinks-xamarin/pull/32#issuecomment-2151964516

I’ll have to port it to modern .NET some day.
