Thanks, Martin, for appearing here. I've read a few times that apps developed in React Native have an odd look-and-feel, or had noticeable touch latency, or aren't performant enough or native-quality. Every time I tried an app built using a hybrid framework, it felt second-tier.

Has that been your experience? When you moved any UI from UIKit or native Android views to React Native, was it worse in any way? Did it require a lot of work to get back to native-quality UX?

I've only seen such thing on infinite non-optimized listviews on old Android crappy phones, but, new listview infra that solves this is coming up soon :)
