When WSL2 first came out, some losers on /g/ were cheering that it would "make Linux obsolete". Four years later, I think it's safe to say they were kinda missing the point. (vlemmy.net)

its pretty clear they are going to push the desktop os off the boat for something linux based. might take years. the OS is already no longer "in charge" everything is hypervisor run now.

its possible very few would even notice a swap out once they reach a certain level of capability. I am sensing a willingness to pull what apple has done many times and just cut legacy support off at the knees.

it may be time.
