I’m not sure. I envision a lot of regulatory stuff happening around the kernel as it becomes more popular & vital to infrastructure. As that happens, the direction of it becomes more controlled and eventually maybe becomes unrecognizable.
But maybe the fact it’s open source flat out prevents that?
I really don’t know, I’m not a futurists, I was just internet speculating.
How would it be bad? More hardware support, more users not feeding data to corporations, more software support and so on.

The Linux kernel is already popular & vital to infrastructure, servers and Android exist
