Dashboarding Declined
I understand not everyone is happy with the decision, but the only thing that really changed is I don't think it's fair to leave something in a status that doesn't match the reality only so we don't get people upset. This wasn't a recent decision or update and is in line with what we've been saying publicly for awhile - if you listen to the presentation from Ignite 2017, which was early October of last year (https://channel9.msdn.com/Events/Ignite/Microsoft-Ignite-Orlando-2017/BRK2156), we said the same thing to the audience around the plans for this feature and where we were going to take the box product going forward.
Hope this helps a bit in the understanding, and I promise we'll always be transparent about things around what we're doing with the box.

Hi Anonymous,
Like you we are very disappointed by this decision. Unfortunately I take a slightly more cynical line to you, its been declined because Microsoft want us all to pay for Azure services, simple as that.
What's wrong here is that Microsoft are not being honest and open with us, they are toying with the On-Prem solution but really don't want to make it so good it becomes the preferred option for Enterprise development.
Microsoft prove me wrong, listen to what we are saying, publish a road map for the PBI Report Server, give us a clear commitment to make it a full enterprise solution and start to manage the releases in a more professional way, i.e. let us know before hand what is coming in the next release, and when it is coming.
