I've been working on an audio player for my current project and debated whether to include a volume control or not. This led me to realize how different the experience is depending on the OS.
On macOS and mobile, the vast majority of users are used to controlling the volume with hardware buttons. There are many media players that do not include a volume control precisely because of this (eg: Apple's podcast player for the web).
On Windows and Linux, users do not always have hardware volume controls so the majority of users are accustomed to doing that in the media players themselves.
