This is something "bothering" me as well. It's either Mac or Linux if you want to be "cool" in tech.
I am always like "wait do you not write any Windows software or is it all on the Web"?
Maybe I am ignorant and stuff and maybe it's just bothering me. :)

- SunlitCat 2y agoCan't say for Windows, but at work I manage a bunch of iPads with JAMF and it's really comfy to use.
- oooyay 2y agoI write applications for Linux, MacOS, and Windows but I use cross-compiling frameworks like Wails or Tauri to do so. If I write in Windows Forms (old Xamarin forms) then my application only works on Windows. MacOS is similar. All of my development occurs in Linux as a result.
