Saying “one of the most popular operating systems” when there’s only 3-4 serious, mainstream contenders doesn’t mean much.

And Linux desktop is less than 2%

For gaming I'm fairly sure that overtakes macOS

Yeah exactly, it’s the lowest of the major ones… not saying it’s bad or anything, just not exactly attractive to game devs

Yeah, I think 10% is where it's definitely attractive, though macOS got away with far less, probably because of how much their customers tend to spend on hardware and software.
