UNIX and UNIX philosophy are one and the same, there is no way around it with some kind of word games.

C was created to make UNIX, originally written in straight Assembly, portable. A process finalized by UNIX V6 release.

UNIX philosophy grew out of Bell Labs into all universities and business that took those source tapes, and took it from there.

Hardly possible to be selective of what UNIX is all about.

Modern Linux is so far from old school UNIX though. They are even talking about using Rust!

It's evolved so much, and the remaining unixy bits get more and more supressed and hidden.

BSD still has more of it, but Linux seems to be moving on and is very far from the days of everyone piecing together software from small parts.

Linux became a kernel for the GNU project, whose founders were raised in ITS and MIT AI Laboratory, and the original planned kernel for the project doesn't have anything related to UNIX.

Most projects using the Linux kernel nowadays care more about having a free beer kernel than anything UNIX related.

BSD has always been a proper UNIX, hence AT&T lawsuit when they were finally allowed to monetize on UNIX.
