> which is why people tend to default to making web apps (or hybrid solutions using frameworks like React Native) rather than native apps
Not sure why people keep making the claim that native is dying. More and more people are doing their computing on their smartphones and the vast majority of the top 100 apps on both iOS and Android are built in Objective-C/Swift/Java/Kotlin. It seems to me like the main people pushing the whole web app/PWA renaissance are web developers who resent the fact that the web is dying.
