Default Potting Soil vs. Potting Mix

...
What is the difference between "Potting Soil" and "Potting Mix"?
Also, if you were to make your own potting mix or potting soil what
would it consist of?

Thanks


2nd question response. Sandy loam, pine bark 5%, food green leftovers.
Stew for a month in warm weather, keep it moist. Bear in mind that "sandy
loam" is difficult to get a consistent definition for.
