What's it like? Do I have to use Windows and Visual Studio? ๐คข๐คฎ Or can I use a *nix machine and open source tools to do my job?
It is not old Microsoft. You don't have to use VS and Windows always. Personally I am doing most of the job on Spark cluster.
I would kill to intern at MS, even if I had to use Windows 98
Wtf is wrong with you? Have some self respect.
Ms intern program is one of the good ones. It is not just about getting the project done, but with tons of events and fun activities and goodies distributed. While it is a bit org specific, I know of atleast one org where the entire intern team got to: 1. Go for sky diving 2. Rock concert 3. Xbox, yes, each one got one. 4. Surface laptop.

.net core is awsome and runs on linux/docker just fine, I think better then on Windows.
It depends on your team. The tools I work with play nicely with Windows, and the code on my team is organized in VS projects/solutions. Coming from Linux background, I also had predispositions about this, but I got used to this and now it's quite convenient. Think of it this way: as a professional engineer, you'll have to adapt and get used to new dev environments pretty quickly, so why not practice that skill?
You probably won't run things locally. You would use DSVM, azure machine leaning, databricks. Whatever your terminal is, windows or mac, doesn't really matter :)

Very nice. That removes a lot of my hesitation
