Is there any OS that's fully POSIX-compliant?

[–] frezik@midwest.social 7 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, in fact, there's a formal certification process by the IEEE and the Open Group.

Mind you, I think only one of the fully-certified OSen has any substantial use these days (MacOS X). People tend to overvalue it, IMO.
