Try to be a bit more explicit about the status of XA and Android for .NET to clear up some confusion we've seen from users.

Particularly:

  • Classic Xamarin.Android is deprecated and has an announced end of support date.
  • Android for .NET exists as and is supported as a standalone product without MAUI.

We can tweak the exact verbiage as needed, but these are the main points we should try to convey.

Can we get xamarin-macios to update their README in a similar way?

Don't `backtick` around product names.  Product names don't need to be in fixed-width fonts.

Remove "scarequotes" from `"native" .NET Android development", and rephrase.
