That’s quite a trick  30 years ago = 1990
Linux first release = 1991
Linux first usable release = 1994
Linux first desktop release = 1998 (KDE) or 1999 (GNOME)
So using Linux for 30+ years...
Maybe a time traveler? I hadn't realised my first install was before it was usable  Don't remember the details, but it let me do some unixy stuff without having to go to the university campus. I guess it depends what you wanted to use it for. Maybe confused with something else?
Because Linux is a Unix-like kernel/OS, but not necessarily Unix itself.
More projects based off Unix and modelled after Unix existed before Linux, and Unix is very old.
BSD is based off Unix for example, but it's separate from Linux.
macOS is based off BSD however.
I never heard of Multics, maybe too young to remember? Yes, that must be it
