No, this is simply untrue. Once you step outside of the US SV and WebDev bubble, there are millions of developers writing code for on Windows and Linux for stuff that you never even heard of. Mostly because it's unsupported on Mac due to the locked down ecosystem. Obscure machine controllers and their drivers, planning software, banking software, regulatory mandated software for certifications, etc.
- raxxorrax 8y agoIt is really funny, since it wasn't too long ago since I met the first mac-developer. I wondered quite a bit about that. I did industrial cs, so development was mostly focused on embedded devices and nobody here used a mac for anything. Wouldn't have worked anyway, since people tend to be tinkerers. That is usually not a group using locked down environments.
