The first desktop version, Mac OS X 10.0, was released on March 24, 2001. Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and all releases from OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion to macOS 14 Sonoma are UNIX 03 certified

I don't like MacOS, but it's actually able to be called UNIX.

I'm surprised you don't lose Unix certification with crap like case insensitive filesystem defaults.

I don't want to be like Stack Overflow, but tbh you have some design problems if you rely on case sensitive filesystems.

I haven’t heard this before, what are they?

[-] aidan@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Most importantly readability and usability for the user and debugging. Some programs aren't case sensitive.

[-] QuaternionsRock@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

That last point is somewhat amusing considering you have to go out of your way to make your program case-insensitive.

[-] thehatfox@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Both HFS Plus and APFS can have case sensitivity enabled, it's optional.

Enabling it has had a tendency to break third party Mac software though. Adobe used to be a particularly bad offender there.
