   @newt @nonetrix they compiled the freebsd kernel as a library for mach so they could leverage unix userspace

     @nonetrix ugh.. no. MacOS has its very own kernel as well. They have some userspace tooling from NetBSD, but that's mostly it.

     @nonetrix that's true. As a matter of fact, PS4 runs TWO different FreeBSDs at the same time :comfyxd:

     @nonetrix again, they don't run freebsd. They have some drivers from freebsd kernel, but that's it.From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_Switch_system_software:>Notable findings include that the Switch operating system is codenamed Horizon, that it is an evolution of the Nintendo 3DS system software, and that it implements a proprietary microkernel architecture.[4][3] All drivers run in userspace, including the Nvidia driver which the security researchers described as "kind of similar to the Linux driver".There's an open source implementation of their kernel called Mesosphere, which again isn't FreeBSD.

     @nonetrix no, it doesn't. They have their very own OS.

     @newt switch uses FreeBSD base right? not surprised Bluetooth on FreeBSD is a meme pretty much
