I saw it while looking at the internal changes in the latest Kindle for PC version 1.40.1, released yesterday. The PC and Mac apps share a common code base so there are strings and functions that relate to both platforms in those apps.

I suspect an equivalent Kindle for Mac release is imminent and that it will show the deprecation message I saw.

I don’t know.

I suspect that Windows users are going to be facing the same issue when Windows 10 reaches end of life in 2025. At that point Kindle for PC won’t be needed anymore since Windows 11 supports the Kindle for Android app.
