Windows or Linux
#7
The Windows dominance will remain while there is such a thing as Wine. People like me have Wine as unconditional requirement to put up with a Linux distro in the first place, and otherwise run it into a "virtual box" (my computer doesn't permit me) and reject those setups with persistence files because it isn't flexible enough allowing somebody to install and remove whatever he/she wants.

However, Wine is a terminal requirement for me for music software more than for programming. That's why I'm content enough with the version of QB64 that could run on Linux. Also the Linux version is definitely lighter in dependencies than Wine, besides needing to fake M$ DLL files.

The statistics about the downloads according to OS, therefore, might be misleading except for the MacOS users.
