I used to feel the same way but Flutter is hardly a new technology anymore yet still seems to be used very little. I've dabbled with it on hobby projects here and there and it seems "fine" but not sure I'd bet the farm on it.

It’s been a thing outside the context of iOS and android for maybe less than 2 years? It’s hardly in the “it had its chance but failed” category.

So you can invest your time I learning Fuschsia and Flutter. What could possibly go wrong?

But that’s not demonstrating the promise of a great cross platform experience.

You made an argument saying that even Google won’t use it for cross platform.

I have some context as to why it’s both a wrong and misleading statement.

When it came to the biggest money maker of the entire business this is what they picked. When it came to a new greenfield project for an entire OS… this is what they picked for the UI.

The statements you made about “the lessons they learned” is just some stuff you made up and isn’t actually supported by facts.

Ads is their biggest money maker. But it doesn’t have to be usable compared to their consumer facing software. Even though it’s used by ad buyers, it’s more akin to internal tools that at most large companies don’t get near the care of consumer facing tools (looking at you Amazon where the internal review process website broke last April).

Dart only survived thanks to Ads business unit, naturally they have a Flutter app.
