In the languages I work with (primarily JavaScript and Rust), cross-platform compatibility tends to be pretty much a non-issue. I develop on macOS, deploy on Linux, and it Just Works. No extra work required.

You forget to mention all backend services (db, redis etc are managed and you need internet connection and cloud credentials for even a development workflow.

I certainly do not use backend services that need to be hosted. Open source databases like Postgres and Redis are easy to install on macOS with homebrew. You can even have multiple versions install simultaneously, although I've found that Postgres tends to be backwards compatible enough that I just run everything on the latest version.
