Linux is not fucking mainstream

If anything is mainstream, it’s BSD, because OS X is BSD.

OS X is XNU. BSD code is in the kernel and BSD tooling is in the userland, but the kernel isn't BSD in license or architecture.
Linux is the most-user kernel on consumer devices (Android) and servers by a very wide margin.
