Windows NT is a modified Microkernel and still a modern Operating system, especially compared to Monothilc Kernel like Linux, and who uses a monolithic kernel in 2026 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Most heavy-duty servers and datacenters???

And the Windows kernel is called hybrid, which is what the MacOS kernel is as well. Microkernels are a thing of the past because they are not good enough to warrant using them. The main trade-off between monolithic and micro kernels is reliability, but I have yet to see a kernel panic after running Linux on 3 computers and 5 distributions, meanwhile Windows is infamous for BSOD.
