Comment on iPad Pro with M4 chip boasts impressive performance jump compared to just-released M3 MacBook Air
BaroqueInMind@lemmy.one 9 months agoIsn’t iOS just about heavily modified Unix clone? My jailbroken old iPad has /var/log and misc GNU directories, as well as an Apt package manager to access Cydia repos.
It is, but it would be like saying Android is just another Linux variant.
What I want to stress in my initial comment is that the OS is so heavily modified and focused on optimization and RAM management, that it can’t hardly work for power users when multitasking is on the board.

Not a clone, its kernel was once certified UNIX. It’s just a heavily modified UNIX.
