    This won’t happen, there is a lot of industrial software that digs it’s fingers deep into windows subsystems that wine does not support. Even popular commercial, like adobe, cannot run on wine correctly

    At this point I’m not even sure Microsoft knows how some of those sub systems work, they just migrating ancient code bases and patching it enough to make it work again on the new compilers.

    So windows kernel will exist untill everyone else leaves.

    Move your workflow away from windows, if you can, as Microsoft doesn’t care enough about their userbase.

      This is why there’s still Windows XP running major systems.

      Windows kept changing anyway so maybe it’s possible that’ll still happen and people just get left with legacy OSs
