    Yeah lots of unix-likes out there but it’s not running the linux kernel so it’s decidedly not linux. I was just trying to stir up shit in a shit stirring thread.

    Now, to possibly stir up more shit: Its ancestry might even be closer to unix than linux itself since darwin was derived from nextstep/bsd whereas linux was a mix of minix and torvalds going “fuck this licensing shit i’ll just make my own”

    I will say, any time i’ve had to deal with a macos system i’ve appreciated being able to drop into a familiar shell. DOS commands drive me insane. dir is 50% longer than ls! Who has time for that!
