No kidding! Win32 / WinForms were great. For desktop / high performance apps I'm not sure XAML / WinUI3 (even though it is called the premiere native user interface (UI) framework) is really that much quicker. Are there some examples of larger spreadsheets apps or other solutions for 10+M row files using XAML. Every time I've tried to play the Windows GUI game with their new and improved solutions the things fall over. But I've been out of touch with space forever now. UWP was the last big push I made to get on board with the "better" way of doing things - was surprised a trillion dollar company was making that sort of thing the premier platform for their busuiness.
