Since the only way Windows is stopping any upgrades of the oldest version
is the builders using 2.16, maybe stopping windows support is just no
longer making those packages, leaving the code inside #ifdef OS_WIN32
there
for you to build it with your preferred GTK.
I don't understand

Do we know how many people on Windows use Geany, users specifically and not
geany devs?
It's impossible to know[1] but if I had to guess[2], I'd say at least

Although I don't use Windows, I don't really see why.
The windows code in Geany is:

I kinda like what Lex said:
I'm not saying delete anything inside #ifdef OS_WIN32 tomorrow. But

Sorry? I don't think Windows support has anything to do with the GTK

The windows code in Geany is:
- unmaintained and bit-rotting
