TBH, so many people I know don't even know how to use Windows. Or even a browser. iOS or maybe Android is their PC, all through apps and feeds.
Like, if I explained laptop BIOS access for installing Linux, Iβd lose them before I even started.
So they're already using BSD and Linux.
Yes yes, Linux is a kernel, but it's pretty obvious from context they mean desktop operating systems using the Linux kernel.
Linux in the memeβs context has little relation to Apple or Android, unfortunately.
