    There’s a big difference between UNIX and Linux, and BSD can be very difference from UNIXes. I believe the macOS userland (definitely not the kernel) is based on FreeBSD 4.2.

      The Darwin kernel is based on BSD… sort of. It’s a monstrosity hybridization of an ancient version of BSD and the Mach kernel.
