"Counterexample: OSX is build upon BSD kernel and, market share wise, it is much more successful than all Linux distributions added together.

HI Consider that OSX Never had to Market itself as a "Linux variant"
it had the advantage an existing, Rabidly Loyal, user base Migrating up from Mac OS9
and Apple took great steps to "protect" its users behind a shiny ,bubbly interface where they would never having to type a single Command line unless they chose to enable "root user" and open the "terminal app"
(p.s. as a lifelong mac user I am immune from being accused of Mac bashing)
