The capital is behind Linux, and as long as it fills their use cases theyll keep putting their engineers on it no matter the slop. Though the same was once said of Unix and Windows, and one day Linux plopped up and got big because it solved the problems that they couldn't.
It could end up being BSD, or some ABI-compatible kernel like Asternias. My money is on something that lets users and devs run their software and drivers without complex setup - like what WINE & Proton did for Linux desktop, but even more impactful because the server software that runs the backbone of the internet is where the money is.
I liked the idea behind Redox OS
Redox! That was the one I was trying to remember as I wrote this comment. Especially cool as it has some System76 engineers working on it and porting some of their cosmic desktop iirc
