 Ni> What do you usually see software developers use?

Macs. And I have two linux laptops for work and a Mac, and the Mac is simply more convenient to work on. Apple builds top notch products, in my experience.

Yeah, C# development would probably rely on a Windows box for sure. My last company focused on Java, js, and some typical web dev stuff. My current company does python, c++, and typical web dev stuff. All of this can be easily accomplished on a Mac while also providing a platform that is reliable and can do all the other things any professional would need. I'm not advocating for Macs, just acknowledging that for me and a great deal of people I have seen professionally that Macs tend to be the choice people make.
