I've seen examples of recently created Cordova apps that feel like broken web pages, not real mobile applications. I suppose it would be possible to make one that isn't bad, but that seems like more effort than just making a native app in the first place. It seems weird to say Cordova being a poor experience is a myth and then to say Flutter will always be bad. Flutter is already lightyears ahead of Cordova. I don't know anyone shipping Capacitor projects, so can't really compare that.

as someone who was tasked with porting a cordova app to native (android), i can second this opinion (as a dev and user)

edit: sorry, i mistook "capacitor" or "cordova" (^_^;)
