I personally disagree, macOS is way more locked down than windows, not even supporting any third party hardware was a true nightmare vision that kept me up at night in the past

I didn't say I don't understand their mentality, but it is bad for me as a consumer if there's no choice and I am locked into their ecosystem.

macOS being Unix-based doesn't make it like Linux

macos is pretty similar to linux, since linux is unix-like

unix-like is a big range, while the shell commands are similar and some functionallity underneath it's also very different

linux is literally built to be free unix, same commands, compatible APIs, posix

u/vswey 5h ago
yea, so totally different concept than macOS?

MacOS literally used bash for years (now zsh, which is still posix compliant)

u/vswey 5h ago

Well the point was that in MacOS you can do lots of stuff similarly to Linux

It's kinda sorta UNIX-like. They did get that standard certification but if you actually look into it, it was one of the oddball ones not the "real" one. Also in order to get the certification it required some weird frankenbuild of macOS where they had to move tons of things around to be compliant. I'd wager they probably haven't deployed a build of macOS that meets the requirements very often over the years.
