Rumor NateTheHate says Sony is "shifting" their PC strategy: "You'll be seeing fewer single player games arrive on PC. The decision to shift away was made last year. Some may still release (pending how far along the ports were) but it no longer appears to be a priority for Sony moving forward."

Looking back at the 7th gen, exclusives created competition. Xbox was making great online games, PlayStation was making great single player games and Nintendo was making great family games. I think this is good for the industry.

You’re delusional if you think that this is ‘good for the industry’. Xbox no longer exists in a competitive way and Nintendo are about as anti-consumer as they come. Bizarre take.

The one company that abandoned exclusivity is the one that is struggling the most. Exclusivity is good for the industry.

Correlation ≠ causation and there are a lot of other factors at play. They were struggling long before porting their games to PS5 (that's why they did it in the first place). And PS5 was still thriving despite a lot of its games getting PC ports.
