Well that "screw up" was so egregious that it should take at least a decade to regain any trust.
I don't really care one way or another. I use Linux and I use macOS. But I'm not naive to think the security is any better in one or the other.

Do you use macOS? Because if you did, then how did you recover from them allowing anyone to straight-up log in as root without password? And then mess up the fix for that bug? That wasn't 2008, that was 8 years ago.

Then as it has been 2 decades you should be all good right?
Security practice was generally very, very bad two decades ago, by today's standards, across the industry.
I don't see the point of being so fixated on that.
I was responding to the OP saying "stuff like this is why I'm moving back to Linux". It's nonsense.
No, pulling up a bug from 18 years ago to argue against the fact that linux is secure is nonsense.
