It has always sounded like wishful thinking to me, especially since server developers switched to macs (pretty and unix on the inside).

  What is a server developer? It's a very odd title, in particular, because most servers are Linux and Windows.

    The more common term is backend developer.

      If that's the meaning, then the parent statement: > especially since server developers switched to macs doesn't make much sense. MacOS is certainly very relevant, but there has been no exodus. Here there are some interesting stats: The 2019 Stack Overflow developer survey provides no detail about particular versions of Windows. The desktop operating system share among those identifying as professional developers was: Windows: 45.3% macOS: 29.2% Linux: 25.3% BSD/Unix: 0.1% I think that in the last decade, Windows has lost a very significant market share, which has been taken from both macOS and Linux (the latter having a surprisingly high prevalence).
