    Windows becoming a Linux distribution.

    not what I want, I want Windows (as in, the existing Windows codebase) to become FOSS, if that happened, we would no longer need to care about anyone switching to Linux, in fact I might then install a FOSS Windows myself

      Last I checked, their APIs are pretty terrible. Though that was over a decade ago.

          That would be on the 3rd party manufacturer right? Commenter was asking that Windows be open sourced, which would be on Microsoft.
