Serious question concerning how much of a bubble I am in:
> Flutter is amazingly successful. It's already the leading mobile app development framework
Is this true? Over iOS native, Android native, React Native, or any other hybrid frameworks?
EDIT: numbers can tell different stories, but here's one at least against React Native (which I'm most interested in) in Flutter's favor: https://stackoverflow.blog/2022/02/21/why-flutter-is-the-mos...

#6It reads as if Flutter is getting scrapped as a Google project quite honestly.
If true I can see the blowback being pretty severe on this one.

It is just one person leaving Google, but still planning to work on flutter.

#8I am still salty that "Flutter" used to be the name of an software that let you control your media players using gestures captured via your webcam. Then Google acquired it[0], gutted the project and only kept the name. I guess it will be meeting the same end.

I've gone all-in on Flutter for mobile development, and have quite a lot invested in it. I'm sure quite a lot of other people have.
If Google sunsets it, I'll be so pissed off. I'll never trust anything else coming from them again.

Honestly this makes me WAY happier.
Creating a genuine Flutter development pod outside Google makes it way more likely that Flutter won't die when the internal Google project gets shitcanned.
