"Given the concentration of developers who use Macs"
fairly certain this is a silicon valley thing, the vast majority uses Windows for development and I wouldn't be surprised if macOS and linux are pretty even these days
- haswell 3y agoI think you may be right. This comment was based on 90% of the people I interact with using Macs, but those interactions are indeed mostly in SV. In that sense, the “concentration” is in the SV region, and may have been a bad choice of word by me when thinking about the broader ecosystem. With that said, macOS enjoys ~33% share in the latest Stack Overflow developer survey [0], and I think this illustrates the point somewhat. This is a healthy enough portion of the market to focus on, especially in the case of implementing low hanging fruit. - [0] https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2023/#overview https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2023/#overview
