I've extensively used Flutter for a messenging app. It's awesome in so many ways, but it's clearly not production ready! For example:

- Text Fields are almost unusable for iOS users that don't have predictive keyboard enabled. Reported in 2017: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/12920

- Emoji rendering is broken on iOS. Reported in 2019: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/28894

This is due to the fact that everything, including the OS controls, are re-implemented in Flutter.

Swiss guy here, surprised to see Infomaniak on the front page of HN!

I wouldn't say companies like this come and go: Infomaniak was my first (dial-up!) internet provider in 1995 and I still have my email there. Back then they used to be a small computer shop ran by passionate hackers in Geneva, organising demo scene competitions and such, and now and they grew up and are one of the biggest and most interesting internet company in Switzerland.

I'm somehow building that dating app you won't build. See you on HN in 3-4 months ;)
