As a US citizen I find this incredibly bleak, but I hope the rest of the world pushes forward. I imagine at some point the US will try to get back on board.

Wow brain fart. I was thinking of a Unikernel, not a microkernel.

I think the point of a microkernel is that it strips away all but the barest elements needed to run a program. For example, if you're running a single program, you could possibly get rid of user permissions, the task scheduler and maybe everything to do with the file system. I don't think anyone would really want to lose those features in a desktop environment.

Although I think it would be very interesting if I were wrong :)

This American Life did a good report on this a few years back. https://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/490/...
