There are other sufficiently good languages and frameworks to use for cross-platform development now, Yeah that sounds about right, native work has been drying up quite a bit in the past couple of years and React Native is all everyone is after, it seems. YMMV RN also has a very unfair advantage where you can use Codepush to OTA updates, bypassing Apple/Google's reviews (within its limits of course). It's against the TOS, but the store caretakers have no way (or don't want to) of policing apps that do that, so in the end if you do native only - you're playing with one hand behind your back. And it's not only small devs that do that - all the major automotive manufacturers like BMW (Flutter), GM (React Native), etc do it.
