100% RN devs are happy with RN.
flutter devs are happy with flutter.
which ever framework/libs brings $$$ to dev's bank account devs are willingly to learn.

Flutter totally is different. They using their 2D render library, and this is not actually NATIVE. Their approach looks like writing app with game engine (unity, godot engine...). React native is really native but it had bridge. Flutter was more performant because of their approach but after new arch probably could near. 2025 is going to tough for flutter.

"The React Native New Architecture introduces significant improvements to the framework, focusing on performance, scalability, and developer experience. It includes changes like the Fabric renderer, TurboModules, and a new JS engine (Hermes by default). These updates allow for faster rendering, better memory management, and smoother integration with native code. By shifting to a more modular architecture, React Native now offers improved load times, better startup performance, and greater flexibility for building complex apps. This new architecture makes React Native more competitive with native development and enhances the overall app development process, making it a more powerful option for cross-platform mobile apps."

In the flutter/ react native rivalry, I wonder how much will these new features contribute in increasing the share of react native adoption in the industry?

I don't have insights in Flutter. But as RN dev and connected to the community of RN, I saw that devs are v excited for this new architecture. So, for now RN devs (may be), won't consider any other framework/lib.
