Are Mac users more likely to pay? Likely yes. Are the total number of Mac users who pay higher than the total number of Windows users who pay? I kind of doubt

Are the total number of Mac users who pay higher than the total number of Windows users who pay? I kind of doubt it. Windows market share is still much higher than MacOS.
- garganzol 2mo agoExactly this. It's a well-known statistics that macOS users have ~2x better conversion rate into paying customers, while the rest of the equation is determined by the OS market shares. (I am surprised that such a simple formula creates so much drama for some HN users that they are dare to downvote you for giving the single correct answer to that question)
