I mean compared to some elements of windows, yeah Linux is more similar to macos. But compared to other elements of macos, Linux is more similar to windows. But to say it's super similar to either one in particular is kind of missing what makes each of them what they are.

Macos and Linux skills and fluency aren't significantly more transferable than between Linux and Windows. They're three pieces of software that ultimately try to do the same thing, but go about it in drastically different ways. There are only so many ways from your house to the grocery store, so some of them are bound to cross.
