Microsoft are going to significantly limit what can run in the kernel (including anti cheat) after the Crowdstrike issue. A side-effect of that should (hopefully) be better Linux compatibility.
It’s going to take a while since all the software that uses kernel-level code has to adapt. Windows has very good backwards compatibility, but this would be a non-backwards-compatible change, so it’d require a lot of planning.

I remember reading that and I very much hope it is truly what they end up doing. As of now though, that has yet to materialize.
