1) Private individuals do ~everything on phone and tablet operating systems. Tellingly, those have lots of native development going on. The main exceptions are PC gaming enthusiasts, and, as one might expect, there are tons of PC games released every year. That's what happened to B2C desktop software.
2) Businesses and other organizations have a bunch of reasons to at least be OK with using web-apps or tightly-integrated-to-online-services Electron shitware, and maybe even to prefer those things to native applications, and other businesses have a bunch of reasons to want to sell them web-apps (subscription vs. single sales, especially). That's what happened to B2B desktop software.
