I was involved for two years as a product owner of building a Flutter app (proudwheels.com) in '21 and '22. All junior devs on the project, there was just one senior back then. Flutter is better than using React Native imo, but there are indeed not much devs out there who have a real senior experise with Flutter / Dart. But if you're an indiedev and would like to use a hybrid framework for building 1 codebase for all your distributions, then Flutter is a good choose. I think the ecosystem is still growing.

Dart is a great language, much better than JS/TS in my opinion - especially now that they are adding metaprogramming abilities. The compiler is solid, devtools are great. Flutter is fast and will output to pretty much anything (including web, though it definitely does not *feel* like web) and there are tons of libraries in the ecosystem. Including many good native OS looking widget libraries like Material, Cupertino, Adwaita, etc. Downsides: Less devs than Javascript, obviously. And too much reliance on Google, who could pull the plug. But it's open source and so many companies are invested in it that I highly doubt it will die.
