You might also want to rank by how often people use double hyphens-- like so.
I'm probably not alone here in being a longtime Linux user who started using a Macbook after the Apple Silicon transition, late 2022.
On Windows and Linux, inserting an em-dash is a laborious alt-code process. But on MacOS with an Apple keyboard, the `option` key acts like a tertiary shift, so an `–` em dash is just <option><->.
I didn't start using em-dashes (typing -- is just second nature to me and I'm still on Linux most of the time) when I got a Macbook, but I imagine some people in my shoes did.
