I have figures for the download numbers, which are an awkward proxy because 
most people don’t CI on Windows and macOS, but they’re the best we have. Linux 
has approximately 20x the download numbers of either Windows or macOS, and both 
Windows and macOS are pretty close together. These numbers are a bit confounded 
due to the fact that 1/4 of Linux’s downloads are made up of systems that don’t 
report their platform, so the actual ratio could be anywhere from about 25:1 to 
3:1 in favour of Linux for either Windows or macOS. All of this is based on the 
downloads made in the last month.

Again, an enormous number of these downloads are going to be CI downloads which 
overwhelmingly favour Linux systems.

For some extra perspective, the next highest platform by download count is 
FreeBSD, with 0.04% of the downloads of Linux.

HTH,

Cory
