To clear it up I am referring to just the kernel. You can set anything you’d like as PID 1 so we can have a non-unixlike userland. For example, some users set their kernel to boot directly into Emacs, without an init system.

    non-unixlike

    Linux-based

    Sorry, friend, but you’ll have to pick one. Linux is Unix-like.

      Couldn’t we implement a non-unixlike userland though (e.g. it’s all just emacs)

        That’s called systemd. :P
