Do you judge an interviewee who uses Windows?
I've been a software developer for 12 years, and do 100% of all my work on a MacBook. I've been interviewing lately on my gaming desktop, because it's hooked up to a ton of monitors, external keyboard, and desk mic. Thinking if I sharescreen and the interviewer sees window as the dev environment, if they look negatively on that. Thoughts?
Nah, I see it as a filter. You don't want to work with devs that judge people based on what OS they use.
They are morons if they do it. Been using Mac for 15 years and equally comfortable on Windows.I still don't see how one is better than other. For me they have been the same.
MacOS was definitely superior before. Now, I don't know and I don't care. As long as you get the job done all's well.

They might, but if they do, that's nonsense. I'd stop worrying about small things like this.
MacOS is crap anyways. Way more buggy than windows and lacks basic support for standard tech such as non apple multi monitor/kvm, poor VM performance, no touch screen support etc.
