Not particularly, but if their big OS was Linux based, people could get their corporate support, and most of the software keeping people locked into windows would theoretically be able to run on any Linux distro. That’s the dream. I want to run solid works on Linux natively
Yeah that’s fair, but at the same time, nothing has to go upstream as far as I know. As long as they have their own little sandbox to enshittify, I don’t care if I can get Linux support for my windows only programs

Embrace
Enslop
Enshittify

I’m pretty sure Microsoft has more people working on Linux stuff than Canonical has total employees.
Microsoft has already contributed a shitton to the Linux kernel. So long as they don’t evict, only augment, it’s a good thing.
Besides, they killed their golden good with windows 11 and are now looking for escape routes they can plan for.
Extend comes after Embrace; sure. Historically, guess what comes next.
Impossible and user-violating arbitrary standards pushed via legislation that only their OSes conveniently meet?

They ruin almost everything they touch. I don’t think you want their fingers on Fedora or any other Bistro. But that is just my old man opinion…
