WoW was introduced in 04 or 05 and the first iPhone was 07 depending on how you trace iPhone lineage that’s not exactly correct.
If we trace iPhone back via PDA’s we have to start talking Newton which was out by the early to mid 90’s so it predates Steve’s return so it was definitely a twinkle in his eyes.
I used Gentoo in that timeframe and it wasn’t exactly a simple process to get any Linux running on a laptop (desktops were different I’m sure) which is why I used Gentoo. I figured if I was going to have to search and compile shit I might as well compile the whole thing.
in any self respecting independent posix benchmark MacOS is almost always leading or at least in the top 10% at being the worst one(s) in posix compatibility, iOS completely hides all and any UNIX-like userspace to the end user, MacOS hasn’t cared about posix compatibility and unix-likeness more than enough to get a cert to claim posix compatibility and ships outdated versions of many CLI utils and many things in which although outside of POSIX are expected to be in a certain way in unix-like OS which MacOS simply doesnt follow or care at all (e.g basic FHS, /home etc…)
iOS users were *nix users 15 years before linux was actually usable
Classic Mac OS was not unix like. Mac OS X, which was based on NeXTSTEP was. But that came out in like 2001.
iOS came out in 07

I was playing WoW on linux long before the iphone was a twinkle in steve jobs’s eye.

Shit, I’m still waiting for the day macos (I assume that is what we are actually talking about here) is usable.
iOS is not unix like, stop spreading misinformation
Correct.
IOS is based on Mac OS, which is certified unix.

what
iOS is a fork of MacOS, which is actually UNIX
