Apple discontinued macOS server, i bet they use Linux in some of their servers
All their networking related libs are available and tested for Linux [1, 2]
Let's not forget that they package Swift for Linux, and now also for Windows [3]
Swift is crossplatform language (you not wanting to understand it doesn't change this fact), it's not a macOS framework
