Because of the fact, that even on Windows you can develop for Linux, and on Mac you can develop for Windows and so on and so forth.

If the survey was like, "which operating systems are you "not" developing code on?", my answer would be macOS. Other devices I have tried once, some were tough so I left and some are amazing; Windows and Kubuntu (KDE based Ubuntu) are my favorite. Kubuntu provides a great set of tools, such as KDevelop for developers to build application software.

Visual Studio Code being a multi-platform product, it doesn't really matter now.
