So does "unix" mean:

        1) has some possibly very-remote code base connection to some UNIX that AT&T put out;

        2) is eligible to use the UNIX(R) trademark;

        3) other?

If it's 1), then I *guess* Linux is the only UN*X that doesn't fit into that category, although macOS, being a 4.4-Lite 
derivative, would fit into that category as well.

If it's 2), then 1) the *BSDs don't count and 2) at least one Linux distribution *does* count (EulerOS).

Perhaps the labels should be

        os:windows
        os:macos
        os:linux
        os:other-unix

("unix" meaning "Un*X", and "other" meaning "neither macOS nor Linux").  "os:other" might be enough.
