To clear it up I am referring to just the kernel. You can set anything you’d like as PID 1 so we can have a non-unixlike userland. For example, some users set their kernel to boot directly into Emacs, without an init system.

My LG TV runs Linux. And I’m pretty sure I had the GPL in some other home appliances as well. You’d also find the Linux kernel running in a lot of other embedded devices as well. Roombas… Sometimes they boot straight to custom software. TomTom GPS devices do (or did) that AFAIK. Other car entertainment devices as well. And I think there is some design pattern in which you run your microservices without a full Linux in the container on a server.
