I agree with you. RN still sucks on some aspects, but it's quite an amazing technology and I'm grateful it exists.

  Nah, among cross-platform, RN has stagnated while Flutter has sped past. The key issue I see these days is that it's just not worth it to build a mobile app these days unless your payment flow happens outside of the app.

    I had bad experiences with it 7 years ago, but really good experiences with it recently. If you stick to native modules managed by expo you'll be in a great place! You can run into dependency hell if you use a random react-native npm module that was last updated 5 years ago.

    I think most users would prefer an RN app over a Flutter app, especially on iOS, because the RN app will feel much more native because it renders using native views, instead of a Skia framebuffer.

    > it's just not worth it to build a mobile app these days unless your payment flow happens outside of the app not true at all, 85% of something is better than 100% of nothing. This is coming from someone who hates mobile apps and apple's grip on them
