I wonder why Flutter didn't gain traction in US. It seems to be more or less popular in poor countries and even less in Europe. But in US it seems to be quite a no name. Why US is so JavaScript-centric?
- npm is legit slower in these countries
- Flutter's easy and stable toolchain and great cross-platform support counts a lot more in countries with less specialization
- lower on-disk footprint because no node_modules black hole, actually matters in countries without infinity disk size
- smaller app bundles mean less mobile data
Just some anecdotal observations, there are probably other factors too like inertia
Ah yes, those fluttering countries and their fluttery ways
