Could you build this?

No Developing a cross-platform paged media feed with pooled native player instances, predictive preloading, and bounded caching requires low-level audio/video systems expertise on both iOS and Android.

What it would actually take: The architecture requires building custom TurboModules/Fabric native components bridging to iOS AVFoundation (AVPlayerLayer, AVQueuePlayer) and Android Media3 (ExoPlayer). The hard engineering challenge is managing texture view pooling, memory reclamation under rapid scrolling, and asynchronous asset preloading without dropping frames or leaking native memory across the JS bridge. This demands specialized mobile multimedia systems engineering.
