      It’s not just GNU/Linux what people show in unixporn: some rice macOS, some rice BSD, and some even rice Android. What do they have in common? They’re all based on UNIX.

        Ohhh I only ever saw linux, sorry. So BSD is based on Unix but is not unix too?

        Thanks for explaining.

            Unix is like franchising: you can be perfectly SUS, yet no money = not Unix

        They’re all based on UNIX.

        technically not, rather, they’re unix-like since unix was a proprietary system

          Thanks for the heads up! I meant in philosphy, not necesarily in the code.

        Linux (and Android) are not based on Unix, they are Unix-like. And macOS is based on BSD.

      X doesn’t care what the kernel is.
