seems I'm too boomer for this shit, apparently phones count as "personal computers".

look at this graph and tell me that mac os is "dominant".

(the numbers for those who don't want to click the link)

Android = 43.86%

Windows = 27.97%

iOS = 17.8%

OS X = 5.64% (when did they stop calling it mac os?)

unknown = 1.96%

Linux = 1.44% (we're still last place guys!)

Linux people generally use adblockers so I somewhat doubt all these analytics websites that don't have a methodology that wouldn't be blocked by adblockers listed
