- ssokolow 5y agoGood point. It's probably fundamentally a cost-cutting measure in both cases, where Microsoft just found it cheaper and easier for similar reasons. (eg. Win32 isn't a convenient API, Qt has license fees while Electron does not, Microsoft has a history of making successor APIs that even they don't have proper confidence in, etc.)
