Professionals mostly use Macs? Should I go Windows or Mac?

On the one remaining underpowered Intel based Mac presumably.

"With the death of Boot Camp and the switch to ARM M1 and M2 processors in the latest Macs, Parallels remains on the cutting edge of virtualization and is the best way to run Windows on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.
Parallels is authorized by Microsoft to run Windows 11."

You are literally just going to spit back google results? Are you secretly a bot?

Go for whatever makes you comfortable using! It is that simple.
Personally I think Macs are extremely overpriced for what you get, but if you prefer to use MacOS then go for it.
A lot of producers use Windows PC's for heavy duty productions (ie not laptops!). But then use laptop Macs for live situations where you don't need as much memory and CPU.
Running Windows on ARM is not recommended, since most software is developed for x86. I don't know if there's even any DAWs for Windows that are compiled for Windows ARM. Probably not many plugins.

You did not read/understand my post or its link
I will simplify:
Now in 2023 professionals could go Mac AND Windows with M1/2 processors so CASE CLOSED
