No need to wait 2 years. Sketch already provides a free web accessible developer handoff tool.

Well, different market really. Afaik, Sketch is still macOS only.

Mac is required for designing, which in pratice most designers are using in the vast majority of organizations, so it's not really an issue.

For feedback and handoff the web tool is free and works in any OS that has a browser.

Didn't know Sketch did cross-platform hand-off nowadays.

Yet, I still don't believe "most" designers use Sketch, except in some "niches" like startups for example, or really design-heavy industries. Probably differs wildly by country too. What I've seen used most in the wild is Figma and Adobe tools, a lot of times on Windows.

Because in 2007-2015 every dumb teacher told their design students this lie and then it became truth.

Yet it entirely lacks value.

Greater design positions don’t rely on Mac’s lol so why should more simple design?
