   There are such terms. - I've used since decades (and it's meanwhile   
   also widely used!) the term Unix for the family of UNIX-like systems.   
   I suggest using that term. (But you find also other terms, like *nix,   
   that I personally don't like much, but that is also well and widely   
   understood.) For complaining and bloviating about that OS-family any   
   of these terms might suit you well enough (and will be understood).
