    Home and workstation PCs are about the only things that aren’t *nix based operating systems. Android uses a Linux kernel. Mac OS and iOS are Unix based. PlayStation 5 is FreeBSD based. Nintendo Switch is a Unix-like mashup of FreeBSD and Android according to Wikipedia. Most TVs run Android, WebOS (Linux), or Roku OS (Linux based). Most web/cloud servers are Linux.

    And I get that Unix and FreeBSD aren’t Linux, but they all come from the same family of operating systems. The entire world runs on mostly Linux or other *nix based operating systems.
