Description

I have this error on Android but I don't understand why?
Exceeded max renders without commit. This might mean that you have duplicate keys in your keyExtractor output or your list is nested in a ScrollView causing a lot of items to render at once. If it's none of those and is causing a real issue or error, consider reporing this on FlashList Github [Component Stack]

Research direction

No project files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing the Android-only error with the reported FlashList setup, checking duplicate keys and ScrollView nesting first. Done means the cause is identified and FlashList renders on Android without the max-render error, with a regression test or documented reproduction.
