Embrace Windows Under the Name 'Linux'?
Microsoft spinners are spreading and boosting this, especially in recent days (clickbait if not googlebombing, too):
THE age of misinformation/disinformation is upon us. So why can't Microsoft too ride this wave?
This is classic E.E.E. You know how it works, right? Amid yet more layoffs, Microsoft becomes a parasite. It tries to hijack its "most potent Operating System competitor".
Like limiting some access or aspects of "ChatGPT" (full access) to Edge users for no technical reasons, even if it's just a knockoff browser (Chromium-based browsers are about 70% of the market). They just try to "extend" (the second "E" in "E.E.E.") popular things to discourage the adoption of the original/s.
Maybe not "a joke", but partly false/misleading news.
This Microsoft advocacy site even spread this nonsense to Yahoo News, making it more visible in Gulag Noise (Google News).
The goal is to 'embrace' and 'extend' so-called 'Linux' with 'features' that only Windows users will get.
Don't fall for it. Use real GNU/Linux. Keep spreading the real thing.
Remember that WSL did not even have Linux in it! Despite the name, with an "L" in it (it's a misnomer anyway, Linux was added only to WSL2, and it should be called "Linux subsystem for Windows", or LSW for short). █
