According to the 2020 Stack Overflow Developer Survey, more coders work on Macs (27.5%) than on Linux (26.6%), but only by a very small margin. By contrast, nearly twice as many developers (45.8%) use Windows as their development machines. Over the years, I’ve jumped between platforms, but I find myself regularly returning to the Mac.
The fact is, I gain a lot of productivity from Mac-specific apps, particularly Final Cut Pro X for video production. I like being able to run Windows, Linux, and Mac applications on the same machine, which is only possible on a Mac (I’ll talk more about that below).
