Native build size depends on what you want in the app, like the app I'm currently working on is almost 300MB, but I've added a few custom extensions to it (charts, iroh, and more). Earliest APK I can find is 140MB. In this day and age I honestly wouldn't worry much about app size though given how much storage devices have.
The "it's ok because the €/gb is cheap" was already bad when it was true, because you can increase ram and disk slots, but now it's hilariously wrong
I like efficiency! Nowadays my phone and laptop are constantly running out of storage since every calculator app is 1GB.
Given the prices of storage and ram you should still worry about wasting user resources

Are you serious?
Do you think people buy more storage just for fun?
I definitely don't buy it for devs to go YOLO
I feel very lucky in that I bought a handful of SSDs mere months before the prices went insane. RAM, not so much, especially for my new laptop which demands DDR5. It may be a while before I can expand that past the 16GB that came with it.
