BSD isn’t Unix. It’s fairest to say it is a Unix. Unix was built in Murray Hill and maintained by a succession of corporations and now sits locked in a safe at a company where they will never have the clue or interest to maintain or distribute it, thanks to IBM. Everything else is just sparkling multics.

And it’s neat to see how well IBM killed the competition who dared to cry code-rape.
Why is a MacOS related screenshot posted in a Linux community for a question about Windows?
And what’s with all the upvotes?
Probably because of “Linux is winning”. ;-)

MacOS is UNIX, Linux is UNIX, if I’m not mistaken.
No, Linux is not UNIX. It is UNIX like. MacOS is UNIX, based on a BSD system.

Linux could be unix if someone wanted to pay to have it certified. It’s meaningless.
Linux is unix-like.
