alt Hacker NewsNow, if only macOS still had the ability to drop to a Darwin shell without a GUI at all… we could just have a nice UNIX with something like KDE or COSMIC, brew as our package manager… what a dream.

But why MacOS then? If you take away the interface what differentiates Darwin from FreeBSD or GNU?

On intel macs there used to be single user mode, but even then I don't think you ever had control over the framebuffer.
Yeah, why stick to the inferior kernel used by macs with a worse package manager? Like something like nix is just superior in every sense.
