React Native v0.72.0-rc.4 has been released.

Golden Release Candidate

We received some high-priority feedback for 0.72.0-RC.3. To fix the issues, we are releasing a new RC patch which we consider a golden one. The fixes include, among other things, performance fixes for Hermes on old architecture (Enable RuntimeScheduler in old architecture (#37523) · facebook/react-native@7211ef1 · GitHub, Make sure the Native RuntimeScheduler is initialized on Old Arch (#37… · facebook/react-native@133ccdc · GitHub) or VirtualizedList improvements ([0.72] Cherry pick - VirtualizedList fixes by bang9 · Pull Request #37258 · facebook/react-native · GitHub)

Help us ensure that 0.72.0 will be as stable as possible by testing this version! Let us know how it went by posting a comment in the working group discussion - and please specify which system you tried it on (ex. macos, windows).

Bonus points: It would be even better if you could swap things around: instead of using a fresh new app, use a more complex one - or use a different library …
