    Absolutely ture, your comment being? I think they were simply referencing the fact that there is a lot more software out there that can be made to semi easily run on linux/unix based systems.

      Also while Linux is not the same as UNIX, interacting with them is much more similar than, say, Windows. They use a lot of the same conventions and managing macOS can be a lot like managing Linux if you want it to be.

        If you use only GUI, the underlying system philosophy is practically irrelevant.

        If you use CLI, you can literally use the same distribution within WSL as you use on a Linux computer. I like using openSUSE’s zypper in WSL more than I like brew on macOS.

        As long as you don’t try to use sed or grep. Literally the only reason I learned perl was because of the flag incompatibilities between macos Unix and Linux utils.
