Are you referring to which will be the more popular. Even so, it all evens out, in my opinion Desktop OS - there's a 3-way battle (Windows, Linux, MAC) Mobile OS - 2-way battle (IOS, Android) SBC - Linux OS or Windows? Embedded - Hard to say as you tend to find many cases where first decision is OS vs non OS (baremetal) and this is application and resource driven. Then with OS it's hard to say... MBED OS very much depends on HW support. Similarly Zephyr. FreeRTOS/CustomRTOS (e.g. AWS/TI) are tend to more hardware agnostic. Software platform can also play a role.
