They're not Linux though?
BSD/openBSD ain't either.
I'm sorry you feel that way about fish Linux
That's the joke.
I know, it just seems like we're moving in the opposite direction of correctness.
They can, and often do, use GNU tools and binaries underneath.
But do not run Linux, the kernel.
Really? They might use some GNU programs, but I'm sure the default user land for OpenBSD is all theirs. Just because you know
cpetc. as GNU utils doesn't mean the BSDs use the same ones. They are just part of the operating system. https://github.com/dcantrell/bsdutils tried to collect various BSD implementations for examplePeople used to care a lot. The GNU utils absorbed everything all the old Unix vendors did. This made them comparatively heafty back when a high end workstations might have had 64MB of RAM.
Now that Chrome takes up gigabytes per tab, nobody cares except a few old Unix curmudgeons.
Wahhhhh this tool can't do two things well, it should only be doing one thing well! πππ
Yeah, I had a few scripts just act weird on osx. The parameters were different and some of them just behaved differently. It was oddly frustrating.
GNU+XNU
Or as I've started to call it, GNU minus Linix
That's the joke.
