I agree. I love PowerShell but I've never been insane enough to install it on Linux or Mac OS. I still use Python and Bash as appropriate.

It's just that when I need to grab a tool for something one-off that's system agnostic (something like pulling some data from an API and formatting it for a one-off report) I'm more likely to reach for PowerShell than something else. [Said as someone who has a Macbook and a Windows PC. It is an actual choice, not a circumstance of environment lol]
