In particular, the "Cross-platform targeting" section needs to be refreshed, I think.

• What are the latest recommendations for library authors?
• What are the most "reasonable" frameworks we should target if we want our library to be used by the largest audience? I realize this might be somewhat subjective but let's assume library authors want to reach developers who use "reasonably" up-to-date frameworks (in other words, let's ignore net45, netstandard1.x, etc.). For example, is net48;netstandard2.1;net5.0;net6.0 reasonable?
• Does it make sense to continue targeting netstandard at all?
• Is it redundant to target both net5 and net6? If so, I assume it makes more sense to only target net6, right?
• How will these recommendations change when net7 is released?
