I don't understand how people can say React is too slow on mobile when React Native exists (and the huge amount of apps that prove otherws)

They're saying it for a reason. React Native is a different architecture entirely.

fwiw when people said Ember was too slow I dove in and took it seriously. Same with

glad you all do. Just think it's a blanket statement, & there are specific solvable problems. I've heard "React not even close to prod rdy"

also i think react isn't supposed to be fast, but instead usable through large enterprisey teams. built for collab not speed.

The sticky issue is the distribution model; RN (& Cordova, etc.) spots you first-run via heavyweight install step.

The web's superpower is ephemeral use. If first run is unusably slow, who's gonna stick around for another go?

So comparing *just* runtime perf w/o discussion of distribution friction & model is mostly pointless.
