I have worked on windows desktop apps for more than 25 years but I have no clue what their current strategy is other than that there probably is none and will change soon anyway. I love good desktop apps but it’s time to focus on web and cloud.

Sure, because the year of Desktop Linux is around the corner. Plenty of enterprise shops have deployment scenarios were the Web is a no go, and WebGL 2.0/WebGPU are no match for native 3D APIs. Then there is the little detail forgotten around HN, that around the world Android tablets have been mostly a failure, basically Android phones with bigger screen. Anyone that wants such a device and isn't into iPads (or cannot afford them), ends up buying Windows laptops or hybrid devices with detachable keyboards.
