Apparently, 12% of Technology Workers Believe that MacOS is based on Linux

And I’m assuming just having “all content licesed under the CC BY-NC-SA 4.0” in your bio wouldn’t work?
I'm not sure if I understand your question.
I believe it does work. Or at least it should, and I shouldn't give up my right to license my own content just because enforcement of laws is lax.

Well, scrapers probably would ignore it.

I remember a podcast I used to listen to a long time ago that argued that MS should just make a fork of the Linux kernel and just make the gui work like Windows. Better security and stability, and huge increase in user base with all the normal Linux users seeing it as viable alternative. I thought it was a brilliant idea. Well except Microsoft would likely have figured a way to kill Linux from the inside.

If it's not POSIX, it's POS

I see no racism in the video posted?

Achemm....
GNU Linux
-
isn't Linux Unix-like?
-
That is the literal opposite of what the world needs.
Windows isn't a bad OS from a purely technical perspective. If Windows were released as FOSS, I would switch to Windows without hesitation.

He's an anti-woke crusader and bigot. A large chunk (probably most) of his "content" is actually about that.
::: spoiler CW all sorts of bigotry
"Best Alternatives to Woke Software", "Devuan: The Non-Woke Debian Linux Fork", lots of shit like that.He loves talking about so-called "reverse racism", he thinks white people are oppressed in US tech.
Here's a recent one:

They [Meta] are allowing criticism of LGTBQ+blublublub issues, including *snicker* the statement that gay people are mentally ill [...] and they're allowing vaccine skepticism on the platform [...] and it is, I'm not gonna lie, mildly hilarious.

I don’t think the ToS approach would be invalidated here via your Safe Harbor fork theory.
The ToS could state something like “you give us a worldwide perpetual right to use your content in any way we want including granting this right to whom we designate”
You still own your content but by having an account you agree to the ToS that lets them do what they want.
They just host it and are safe.

I had forgotten about this!! I’ll have to start up a VM this morning to check it out.
-
yeah I know, far from production-ready though

For those who don’t have the spare time 🤭

That is the fun part

Yes, it was made without any Unix code

Are you sure it's not bad from a technical perspective? I saw a story from a former programmer talking about how changes would be made the to the interface in the new settings app that's trying to replace control panel and the shit was like a horror story.

maybe, but there are also things it arguably does better than Linux, e.g. user access control
(If you can still find this story, I'd be very interested in it, please do link to it here.)
