Official proposal for Type Unions in C#
Ironically, given the past history that lead to .NET existence,
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/java
https://www.microsoft.com/openjdk
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/java
Because it turns out, making Java running on Azure, on those 60% Linux workloads, is lot of money.
Also plenty of Azure, anything CNCF related, is mostly Go and Rust.

Microsoft seeks Rust developers to rewrite core C# code
They use a ton of java, they even have their own distro. In fact, they answer this question on its landing page (https://www.microsoft.com/openjdk):
> Java at Microsoft spans from Azure to Minecraft, across SQL Server to Visual Studio Code, LinkedIn and beyond! We use more Java than one can imagine.

ClickHouse Keeper: A ZooKeeper alternative written in C++
That's a _very_ incorrect statement. You can use any OpenJDK (which is GPLv2 with classpath exception) distribution you want to run Apache Zookeeper without having to have any agreement with Oracle or pay any fee. The Oracle JDK is just Oracle's commercial version of their OpenJDK distribution with Oracle support.
You can use the OpenJDK distro shipped in your Linux distro (RedHat, Debian, etc.), you can use Microsoft's OpenJDK distro[1], you can use the Eclipse OpenJDK distro, you can use Amazon's OpenJDK distro [3] and there are a whole bunch more.

- Oracle is sending out unsolicited mails about Java licensing.
- Minecraft won't start after clicking Play

It seems interesting to me, but when I came accross their page https://www.microsoft.com/openjdk I am kind of confused that if C# is so good and capable, what made Microsoft to use Java

FreeRDP: A Remote Desktop Protocol Implementation
WSLg(Windows Subsystem for Linux GUI) uses RDP and FreeRDP to work: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg
I haven't tried it yet, but I'm hopeful the experience is better than last time I tried Hyper-V enhanced linux experience. I imagine this use case is getting FreeRDP way more attention.
For years I've developed in a Linux VM on a Windows host via VirtualBox. The typing lag on this, particularly in IDEs like VSCode and Rider, finally got to me. So, I moved over to WSL and have to say; the experience is amazing.

Microsoft has some wayland stuff already for WSL, though I think internally there's RDP involved: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg
