We’re already at the point where Windows programs sometimes run better on Linux with a compatibility layer (WINE/Proton) than they do natively. The stuff that doesn’t run is mostly games ladened with kernel-level DRM that Linux (rightfully) can’t emulate.

Linux even runs old Windows programs better than Windows itself, and long-term compatibility is supposed to be one of Windows’ biggest selling points.

Didn’t the PS5 boot signing keys leak recently? The word when that happened was that it blew PS5 modding wide open in a way that couldn’t be closed without new hardware, though I guess publishing anything that used Sony’s key would have their lawyers after you real quick.
