From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I cited a couple of examples, that doesn’t mean I had to cite the entire pantheon in order to be correct.
Your lack of understanding and your narrowmindedness is not my fault.
Your hate and your personal anger against Apple is something you have to reconcile on your own.
Yes, you cited examples from early 2000 and then you add current references that have the characteristics I have observed. Maybe you should develop your argument better at this point? Or are you keeping the best examples that show meaningful, present, contributions secrets just to make your argument weaker on purpose?
I pointed out flaws in your arguments which you keep not addressing by making arrogant comments, which makes me thing you don't have any more arguments to use.
Also, I don't hate Apple, I don't care for it. I even mentioned in my very first comment that what Apple does is no different from what other organizations do, even if those make currently bigger contributions to FOSS (Microsoft contributions to the Linux kernel, google project zero reports etc.).
You also continue to avoid the argument that forbidding people to run what they want on generic purpose hardware is completely against the principles of FOSS, and yet all your argument is "why would they". This fact alone would put any OSS contribution to shame, because it's a clear as day demonstration that they don't believe (let alone care) about the Freedom of users, and that opensourcing is a mere way to pursue business interests, which has no moral value on its own.
You really are incapable of having an argument without offending your opponent. You should definitely seek some professional help and not vent your frustration online.
