          Didn’t it, though? Is MacOS Unix? PlayStation? Any of it?

          Look at the development energy behind Linux versus any of the BSDs.

          TrueNAS is pivoting to Linux because they were tired of implementing things in BSD that were solved in Linux.

          It’s easy to see why too. There’s little incentive for a company to open source improvements over BSD if they are even tangentially related to their core business. You’d be fueling the competition.

          Edit: I’m assuming you meant Unix/BSD. Linux was always on a copyleft license, after all.
