    I highly doubt they would ever move to Linux, but a custom BSD kernel doesn’t seem that unlikely

    Knowing Microsoft, they’ll port 90% of Windows to run on top of WSL with the entire Windows backend and kernel still present and running. The remaining 10% of applications (including Internet Explorer) will keep running natively for backwards compatibility.

    What a weird take. Kernel diversity is a good thing and, lets be honest, windows kernel is in many ways superior to linux (and worse in others). All the problems come from the stuff microslop puts on top of it. We dont want chromium situation repeated with OS’s.
