There might be an oversaturation of Mac native apps on the HN front page relative to Linux/Windows native apps. I, too, feel a bit disappointed when they are posted for the same reason as SomeCallMeTim (especially if it's not clear from the post's title that it's Mac exclusive and it only becomes apparent deep into the linked page), but I also know there are tons of native tools for Windows and Linux — they're just not discussed here as often. Though this could also be confirmation bias on my part.

Almost every tool in my current weekly use is cross-platform, with the one exception being Visual Studio (and that only when I'm working on a C# app and I don't really have a choice in the matter).

And I use a ton of proprietary tools: SmartGit, Beyond Compare, DataGrip, Postman, Word/Excel, Sublime, Docker Desktop, Blender, Slack, Discord...

The only thing I can find that's Windows-only are the two tools that make up for the shortcomings of Windows shells: MSYS2 and ConEmu.

Seriously; cross-platform (or at least multi-platform) is the future. The frequent posting of Mac-exclusive apps seems to be more about Mac-snobs trying to brag about (and justify) their decision to rely on Macs.
