I looked into it a few times in the past, but it always seemed way too complex and opinionated for me. And they never had any working apps. Have you tried it?

I did play with it but not enough to stand by it yet, whenever I tried it it didn't seem complex but still clunky, however they don't do anything I wouldn't do myself except with great effort so I can't judge them for not ironing out the interface yet, it is not an easy task.
So you like the effectless core? That never made sense to me.
For any kind of real application I would need to make sure they all had traits for any IO they do. Then I would need to implement these traits based on the "capabilies" they offer. But they don't support SQLite so I would need to implement that in Swift and Kotlin? Now I'm writing database codee in Swift and Kotlin -- exactly what I don't want to do. Why?
I would much rather just write a normal rust program.
Hmm seems like you might be able to implement the capabilities in rust. Man their docs really suck.
They are couple of people cut them some slack, but yes you can implement whatever you want, but when something seems like a core logic you want to both reuse across platforms and more importantly test with ease, then you move it to the core.
They both seem vDOM-like, with the real difference being bindings vs nested data? Which is an old UI debate. Bindings win for many "edge" cases and are more conducive to spot optimizations, but they can blow up if you cross the streams.
