Similar to ios - you can't install any kernel extensions to it without Apple's special permission, and have to do everything with whatever API they have implemented snd exposed.
(In macOS's case crippled APIs with backdoors - e.g. application firewalls that use these new API cannot block some Apple apps.)

It will - Apple is moving both ios and macOS towards the same goal of converging them into one product. We saw that with multi-tasking advancement and other features in ios with iPad Pro's, and the crippling of macOS from Catalina onwards.
