I like flutter and would definitely pick it if I had to make a mobile app, but if you have to write a conditional at every step to pick the right component for each platform, I don't see the point of keeping one codebase any more. You're writing code twice, and you have to test it twice, and each underlying implementation can have its own quirks. It can only get worse if you have to work with platform-specific layouts that mean your larger views have to be conditionals as well. I can understand the impulse to have one common codebase for the logic, but these days you can do that with many languages - like Kotlin or Rust - while using the native UI toolkits. If you're writing what is essentially two view layouts, you might as well write them in the native toolkit and skip the overhead of flutter altogether.
