Newsflash: the Mac is currently quite successful.

Still less than 20% of the market. And I feel like the main reason they're even usable as a desktop OS is because 99% of most people's computer activity takes place in a web browser and not because OSX has a particularly special native app collection. Hell it seems like the only time I fire up my mac is because I need to build an iDevice app and nearly every "native" mac app I run is really Electron based.

What does this have to do with the platform? You choosing to use bloated electron apps certainly isn't Apple's fault.
i really like to develop software on my MBP, i must be in the 1% then :\

Currently yes. In the past, no.
