It appears I was using a region-locked version of the Forbes app and most likely not the one referred to in the showcase. I have deleted the post criticising the app, since I don’t think it was necessarily KMP
2 15anyway in conclusion, seems like KMP is a reasonable but not super ambitious tool for sharing non-UI Kotlin code between platforms. Compose MP is the actual RN competitor, but is too early to really dunk on and has not got much adoption yet. thread over, goodnight!

I have this enormous stack of quality of life PRs I'm super excited to land. so close to ripping out the last of the ancient ugly modals! (no offence Paul)
14 4 139lotta strong feelings about the checkies, as expected—broadly positive once people get how it works! imo the Bluesky app is an opinionated lens of an open network, and this additional editorial trust layer is a strong compliment to the more objective domains layer. I love that we’re building…
11 10 179primitives that other participants in the network can use and build on top of. This is an MVP of sorts, and it excited to see where it goes from here
