These are all quite reasonable

mainstream language like C or C++ and the Mac will suffer for it.
This always amuses me. Objective-C isn't as popular as C or C++,
but to call it a niche language is to simply demonstrate one's lack
of familiarity with the industry. It is available on pretty much
every target architecture/platform of GCC and some that don't.
Objective-C is used relatively widely on Linux and not just for
GNUStep. The language is also used in many academic and other
research endeavors. GNOME has long had Objective-C bindings. KDE
does too, but not nearly as well supported.
Objective-C has a long and rich history across many platforms and
environments. While Apple is certainly the most prominent
commercial user of Objective-C, there is a diverse and vibrant
community of Objective-C developers across many platforms/
architectures/environments.
