Can we please stop running network drivers and network stacks in kernel mode by default? It's 2022 and we've got more than enough compute power nowadays that the performance hit for running these in user-land is negligible for most use cases. Smartphone, tablet or laptop users usually do not need the level of performance that requires running that stuff in the kernel when browsing the web.
I get that there are some use cases where performance really matters to the point where kernel network stack and drivers make a difference (high-throughput and/or low-latency services running on servers, high-performance routers...), but that should not be the default for everyone.
