Ok, I'm team Unix.
For being clear.
UNIX (monolithic, Keep It Simple Stupid, scalable, minimalistic, virtual memory, every task is virtualized in Sanbox, everything is a file):
-GNU Linux which GNU is the OS and Linux is the kernel which is mainly Arch (fork as Endevour and Majaro) and Debian (Devuan and Ubuntu and Ubuntu based) and Rhel (Fedora, CentOS) and Gentoo (ChromeOS I know why was written, probably also Android);
-BSD (real heir of Unix AT&T): FreeBSD (DragonflyBSD, who is the most common and still a great server and alternative for Linux), MacOS (which is 70% based on FreeBSD), OpenBSD (a weirdo OS for privacy and security obsessed who run even the crappy and older machine), NetBSD and they had erased whole Unix AT&T code for not being sued by The Open Group (owning Unix AT&T);
-MACH: is an alternative kernel for BSD, the core of MacOS;
-UNIX AT&T: still existent in machines like Bloomberg and banks, old school, no Graphic Interface, used in old Oracle and Sun Microsystems;
-MACOS: a full Unix certidfied OS, hybrid kernel rooted by Darwin, fully BSD and born during the hippie era of '80s collaborating with several BSD's programmators of the University of Berkeley (Unix AT&T worked here) and went certified for avoiding Unix sued them;
-PROTON: way to play Windows games on Unix like natively;
-WINE: using Windows softwares on Unix like;
-PACKAGE MANAGER: like Snap or Homebrew for install softwares by Terminal which is cleaner and faster.
Whole are Posix certified, only MacOS is also certified as Unix.
WINDOWS:
Nothing to say about: bad virtual memory management, bad kill daemon, microkernel, realtime kernel, Posix certified... the only great part is being "easy" without need to use Terminal (Powershell?)... but rumors say only with the Powershell you can kill a program.
