By what reasoning is macOS "Unix", but GNU/Linux isn't?
- jdminhbg 7y agoBy certification: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_UNIX_Specification#macOS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_UNIX_Specification#macO... FWIW, I think "Unix" as a philosophy exists (even mainly exists) outside the spec certification, but this is how you get there.
- tim-- 7y agoHuawei has EulerOS (which is based on CentOS) that is certified. Inspur has K-UX, however, I have never used it, so can't comment on it other then knowing it runs a Linux kernel.
