What people are asking on this thread, that Microsoft just move everything to a Linux distro, is a gargantuan task. It will not happen in 10 years. It might not happen in 20 years but mark my words. Windows will switch to Linux within our lifetime.
- dangus 1y agoThe realistic way I see it happening is more like a product split rather than an explicit migration, or leveraging compatibility layers. One day Microsoft would say, hey, Windows 15 is Linux-based. It'll run most of your Windows stuff either natively with some nice developer tooling to make a transition or using a compatibility layer (which, as we know, Linux already has!) But you can keep using Windows 14 for a very, very long time.
