in thread Impress your children with Perl

IOS is a very walled garden, which seems like a fine idea--for the kind of people who fingerpaint on half a computer. macOS defaults to a similar situation with its apps and app store, but once a terminal is open you are in a certified Unix 3 environment. Homebrew and macports provide tons of unix and linux software. Lulu is a must for precise control of Apple telemetry. Run Linux in a window with UTM. IOS can run Linux too.
