Shopify is not over"

It's not surprising. Code is cheap now, and the tradeoff of having a single codebase and only hiring React devs basically isn't there anymore.

LOL, good luck keeping feature parity for both code bases. I moved to Flutter which has been a junk show and there is no reason not to. AI dramatically reduces the cost of writing code (especially when you have too much cash on hand. You start wasting it and doing dumb things. Like rewriting entire apps in two different languages. AI dramatically reduces the cost of maintaining two native apps enough that a decision that made no sense a few years after. Macs still don't recover from excessive GPU use. They won't. There is no slowing down this development anytime soon and no one will slow down for a second and think about what we're actually doing? React Native is the best thing we have to remark on is the fact it is blue when this is probably the least remarkable thing about it.

As things get more complicated and you need to tell the bootloader the byte offset of the file on the partition.

The problem is there is no reason not to.
