Mac browsers user agent strings contain “Macintosh”.
I know this because I develop a library for parsing them and just days ago someone filed an issue telling me that “Macintosh” was old timey and I should be transliterating to “Mac”. I did not accept the change.
- kiddico 7y agoI don't know if that's the most accurate description of their reasoning, though I agree with your decision. "Could we perhaps rename the Macintosh platform to simply Mac? It hasn't been branded as Macintosh since 1998, and I'd like to avoid having to "translate" this to Mac for newer users that simply don't know what a Macintosh is."
