if this succeeds, WMR headsets might be made Linux compatible and this will turn out to have been on-topic (www.change.org)

Petition: make WMR open source

Microsoft has stopped supporting WMR.

Please sign this petition to?open-source the software, so others can maintain it and prevent the perfectly good VR headsets becoming e-waste!

Are you sure about this?

Sure? No. It was silly of me to suggest it was a question of motivation. I don't know enough about it to make any such assumptions.

I did however give it another go earlier this year, with no success. I could try again if there is reason to think it should work. Valve is the company I respect the most when it comes to caring about Linux. Which is why it always surprised me that I couldn't use the Vive there. Still one of the very few reasons left for dual booting.
