Professionally, yeah I’ve noticed the platform ain’t a great success, at least so far. I think last time a company approached me asking to do some WP development was over a year ago. Fortunately I also develop for Windows PCs, and those aren’t going from desktops any time soon.

But personally I’m happy with my Lumia 930. It’s old but still works fine (replaced a battery once) and is updated to latest WM10. I don’t care about OS market share as long as my own copy works.

Same here, and the apps I care about do exist as UWP anyway.

On a positive note, I am seeing on consumer stores here in Germany the space that was used by hybrid Android tablets, being increasingly replaced by W10 netbooks and hybrid tablets.
