    If you’re prioritizing cost, you should probably already be building a web application imo. There’s very few cases where I would recommend cheaping out and building a native app, it’s just kind of unsound.

      It looks like your reply got submitted multiple times.

      I agree with you now about preference for web apps, but that was not the case when Google started pushing Flutter.

        Looks like my Lemmy-client of choice did some retrying when I had poor connection, sorry about that.

        I think trying to go cheap on native apps was always kind of a fool’s errand, tbh. Cordova, Xamarin, React Native and so on - all pretty sub-par solutions leading to poor experience without actually materializing the desired savings.
