Apart from being open source what is Linux? Could I not create my own operating system that is different to windows or Macos and call it Steve, again there might be an awnser for this and sounds stupid but its more out of curiosity.

linux is often called a unix but it is only unix-like. It’s not officially unix cerrified the way macos, hp-ux, and others are.
It’s possible to certify Linux as “an official Unix”, evidence: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/EulerOS That particular Linux distro’s Unix certification has expired, though.
