Cross platformness is something that was asked number of times here.

Now, .Net Framework 4.6 is dead and .NET Core is where all the things will happen. Migrating to it would be great for both maintainabilaty and futre prospects on cross platformness. For example, v3 added WPF (for Windows only currently).

This will make it much easier to achieve Linux/Mac port in the future - maybe WPF will become x-platform itself, or it can be switched to something else like Avalon or whatever... There is also option to use wine with WPF on linux.

So, switching to net core provides a lot of more options, and it must be done sooner or later anyway.
