Telegram is banned in Russia, so Russian Press Staff start using Viber, which just means no-one, anywhere should be using Viber. . .

Long as ufw and firewall-cmd will still work, this is good.

In the article, it did say that it will be a non-disruptive transition for Linux users. Whatever that means for ufw and firewalld.

Yeah. For now, at least, it looks like they're going to make it backwards compatible.
I just wonder what kind of syntax they'll use for things like NAT and such.

Not too surprising. Microsoft has been a UNIX vendor since the 1980s. They made Xenix.

Going to show my ignorance a bit.
When they are talking about hardware offloading do they mean to the NIC or to an independent machine?

I haven't ready that far into it yet, but I'd assume the NIC. You know what they say about assuming tho. Using an ASIC can be a huge performance boost as well.
