The most popular operating system used by software developers

Title is wrong. This is not a chart of operating systems.

If I recall, Salesforce and Wordpress are a operating system. I mean hell even hardware is a operating system. You wouldn't want to call Kevin a liar now.
 
Okay, lets read.

Stack Overflow has published the results of its 2017 developer survey, which reveal that Windows remains the most-used desktop operating system among software developers.

The change in the way the question was framed caused Linux desktop to shoot up to second place, after MacOS inched past it in 2015 and held onto its place in 2016.

I don't get the confusion. The article is what it says.
It is about OS systems for developers that is most widely used, Windows, Linux, iOS, etc. with a chart of the most popular.
Not much info is given, yes. But there is no need for confusion

Wordpress is an operating system, absolutely.

The question is not clear as it does not refer to how the platform is used by the developer; to either code, general use or the platform they are releasing the product on.

I Need some clarification there, how is WP a OS system? Running on its own

Yep, think for some people it was what are you releasing your products on.
Also, the article title does not match the graphic.

Or are you asking why I said "Wordpress is an operating system, absolutely"? I was being sarcastic towards Kevin's title.

Yes. I am just trying to look at this from a different demographic. There are people on this forum not in IT or any remote form of IT, programming might be a late night study, so some articles Kevin gives might be to accommodate for those.

So it starts off with the most popular os. Then goes to the platform question. After that it's on to something about Linux and MacOS and a prediction of windows falling below 50%. Then there's a list of platforms and even remote services.

And this makes absolute sense to you? What is the article trying to say? Can one even Raspberry?
