There has been a significant decrease in desktops in the last decade. My wife works with children (12-18) and their main computing is done on phones - including school assignments, resume building, and applying for college/jobs.

A computer that is customized to your liking, logged in to your account, has a cellular data connection, and is able to fit in your pocket (and you’re already carrying it). It’s an incredible proposition.
