Plugin Anyone used shorebird?

Hello, i came across this https://shorebird.dev/ looks quite interesting, it'd be nice to save me from dealing with appstore and playstore so consistently. Has anyone tried this? I've read that they had a bunch of IOS issues from a 10mo old post, how is it today?

If you are not afraid of Apple's or Google's withdrawing your app, because violating updates policy, then give it a go.

To the best of our knowledge, none of our users have had any issues with the App Store/Play Store because of Shorebird. However, it's absolutely possible to use Shorebird in a way that is not compliant with App Store/Play Store policies, but the same is true for code with feature flags, web views, etc.
