Linux is quite an oddball in the UNIX world, tbh. It’s the most popular these days, and the one I’m most familiar with, but most Linux OSs are a lot more GNU than they are UNIX.

Here’s another one for you, my reading comprehension-challenged Internet friend.
macOS is actually UNIX 03 certified. It doesn’t get any more UNIX than that. 😉
You might be right. In either case, the argument stands but thanks for the correction.
I wouldn’t want your help anyway, considering you think your reading comprehension is better than mine. 😆
You responded to “macOS is UNIX” with “it’s not open source”. I’m just illustrating how these 2 things are not correlated.
In any case, macOS is based on OpenBSD. Even the original BSD, which OpenBSD is based on, was not initially open source.
Everything you said was a straw man.
UNIX != open source.
In fact, most flavours have historically been commercial and proprietary.
What’s an “emails”?
