This is going to be interesting, but they always end up backing down from their most ambitious projects.

Well, if they will make it look better without destroying performance or cutting features - by all means.
However, I think at the end of the day - users should always have some options for customization.

They're gonna announce a monthly subscription fee to use Windows, and how it's gonna be amazing and make everything better.

Windows 365! It will only cost a dollar a day from now until the end of time.

My wild guess:
1) new minimum system requirements - 64-bit CPU, UEFI boot (GPT disk); recommended system requirements - 8 GBytes of RAM, NVMe SSD, CPU with AVX / AVX2, video card with Direct3D 12 / WDDM 3.0 drivers
2) revamped Windows I/O Manager stack to support DirectStorage for much faster disk access
3) implements USER32/GDI and UWP on top of Project Reunion unified windowing, though probably for built-in apps only
Then there will be the 'Sun Valley' user interface update - not sure what's so major about it, besides new icons and lighter Start Menu tiles; previews look mostly the same as regular UWP apps to me. This new UI would probably be the main focus of the June 24 event.

It will run in the cloud too, or at the very least require constant connection to their network.

"We present you the very next best thing.
The new Windows. Evolved.
At its core, runs a Linux kernel that we perverted in such a way that even a pimp could blush.
Nevertheless, we made it so that can strip every bit of personal information of the entire block, house, community, person, group, whatever.
Fret not, it is free, as YOU are to be sold.
And before you ask, we will gladly shove it down your throats without any remorse whatsoever."

If that happens, I will be entirely on Linux at that point. 🙂
Edit: It is not going to happen but, just saying.

What if all they announce is that the 10 from Windows 10 is dropped and it will just be referred to as "Windows".
Airbud
Windows 11-X
anticupidon
What if they will change its name.
How about Doors 11?
RealNC
Windows 10 Series 10.

As long as they're announcing DirectStorage coming out this month!
PrMinisterGR
What if they open source big parts of it, and keep the legacy stuff on a "legacy" extension that doesn't come installed by default?
A man can dream.
Brasky
Futurama reference there buddy? (well almost, apparently it's robot 1-x in the show.)
Airbud
rumors floating in the air that says the OS might be Windows 12?
