Having been there. Wasn’t my experience. No one cared at all about platforms, not once was that brought up in a critique.
If you could take good pictures, no one cared about the camera.
The brand of paint you used didn’t matter.
people only cared if they could make their work better by using/doing what you did.
Maybe the tools are more important than the art now.
That’s contrary to what my people have said.

What years were you in art school? We’re taking 20-15 years ago.
I thought you were talking about something much newer.
Could just be the people you knew or the school. If you partied hard or were a good artist no one gave a fuck about computer platforms.
The only time it mattered is when someone insisted their work was better because of a computer choice and the work sucked.
