People need official guides or a wrapper or something for adoption to rise.
Ideally you'd replace the IE and EdgeHTML webviews with Edge (Chromium), but unfortunately you've chosen to continue supporting them "until at least 2028". Incredibly disappointing. We're nowhere near a future where we can use webviews for ads on desktop like we do on mobile. We'd love to use WebView2 in games and in game launchers and to monetise it with in-app purchases and ads. Neither are very viable on Windows - UWP was the closest thing but is now deprecated.
Another thing to help adoption is to work with developers. As a large company, Microsoft has the ability to contact other large companies and get them to use WebView2. Explaining the user benefits (less storage space taken and less memory used) would help too. And a showcase (#2514).
