Microsoft loves opensource. :P
While still using proprietary API and proprietary specs for hardware... you know the thing that gets in the way of FOSS operating systems.
Microsoft loves Azure, anything else is there to draw people in.
Translation: Microsoft loves using code that other people wrote for free
Like Google and pretty much every other tech giant.
Google are extremely keen on supporting open source when it hits their competitors but when it's about their own business they pretty much avoids ot. They took Linux and created Android... they the practically locked it down by moving more and more essentials into Play Services... which by some of reason isn't open source.
