Flutter and Dart. It's not that bad, I'm not saying it's dead, I'm saying it's a dead end for me.
I don't see many opportunities that pay well, are interesting, and available for remote. I'm happy at my current position, but if they were to ever "right-size" the team, I'd be fckd, so I spend my nights learning other stuff.
I started Flutter in 2018, back then it felt "magical" for mobile development, now all the competitors caught up. They also (IMO) waste their time reimplementing Flash on the web, it's horrible for 99% of the cases. The community is also off-putting, you observe obvious flaws, 10 GDEs come at you that you are a POS.
In general, mobile has a lower ceiling than backend, frontend, systems, etc... Mobile is also usually a lower priority for the business than web.
