This is great news and I really hope they can build something that achieves those goals.
But JPEG XL is better
So man others have tried this, I somehow doubt Microsoft will fully manage it either.
You could probably build something like that, but I’m not aware of anything that does what you describe.
I know about that and use it for some projects, but it’s still the hassle of donating to individual projects and small payments have disproportionally higher fees (I’m not blaming them it just is like that)
I know micropayments is a bad word, but a centralized nonprofit where I could pay 50$ a month to distribute amongst projects I use and their dependencies would be great. Disregarding any privacy concerns of course, as they would have to track all or most of the applications I use and for how long.
I still write most scripts for bash, but for interactive use fish is just so much better out of the box.
Finally, a shell for the 2000s
Next Proton if they enable full Wayland support
