(CTN News) – The results of a new survey from Stack Overflow show that Linux is used significantly more by developers than Macs, though Windows maintains a clear lead over both.

Stack Overflow’s 2022 developer survey explores the tools and technologies developers are using and plan to use. We have the most popular Loved, Dreaded, and Wanted data, as well as Worked With vs.

Want to Work With data, showing us exactly what developers worked with last year and what they are interested in working on next year.”

With 40 percent and 40 percent, respectively, Linux is the runner-up, while Macs come in third with 31 percent and 33 percent.

It is interesting to note that Microsoft’s Windows Subsystem for Linux comes in fourth, with 15 percent and 14 percent usage, respectively. This indicates the importance of Linux among developers.

With 56 percent usage, Zoom and Microsoft Teams share the top spot for “synchronous tools” for non-developers, followed by Slack (53.43 percent) and Google Chat (20 percent).

In terms of “asynchronous tools,” Jira Work Management is in first place (50 percent), followed by Confluence (40 percent), Trello (33 percent), and Notion (20 percent).
