      I looked it up. macOS is still unix certified.

      BSD is usually not unix certified, so has to refer to itself as unix like.

      What is and isn’t unix is kind of up to what definition you’re working with (pedigree, legally, practically).

        Wait, really? Not POSIX? Huh

        Also another reason I doubt current version macos is certified is:

        “Because it’s an expensive and lengthy process. And every version will need to be re-certified.”
