Yeah F# is a good example.

Two years after UWP was introduced still no roadmap in sight for .NET Native support, Visual Studio 15.3 just shipped with the F# team telling people to use VS Code instead.

I bet it will be joining Silverlight in a couple of years.

However Microsoft is not alone in these kind of decisions. I can think of a few similar ones from Apple, Google, IBM, HP, Oracle, Sun,....

Ya, I wouldn't single out MS as particularly bad here, but they used to be much better about this than the other companies. Now they are reaching down to parity, and developer support used to be their greatest strength.
