Developing for mobile in crypto sucks. You basically have to pick between innovation vs growth?

With Native Apps, you get the optimal experience but you have to work within app store rules (no token gating, etc).

With PWAs, you can innovate freely but you're sacrificing growth potential through worse UX/performance.

but still, if I use a native app, don't know how much growth I'd have as users are not able to directly consume, only read. That doesn't make me come back to the app but use the web app instead.
