Is it theoretical possible to buy the dX license from Microsoft? For example via crowed founding? I mean let’s say we have 70-80 billion Linux user. Everyone should spend 20-40 dollar to buy it for 2250000000 dollar 
i gues some would spend more and some less but maybe that would be possible:see_no_evil:
and yes it is a serious question 
There are “only” ~ 7.8 billion living humans - every single one of them would need to impersonate 10 Linux users to get to 80 billion … 
with $ 2.25 billion for that license, every living human would need to give ~ $ 0.25
one tenth of that if there where 80 billion
but of course it is 
Why do Linux users need it? There is Vulkan which is intended to have better performance than DirectX.
