most devs prefer fabric as its easier to develop for and boots faster but on 1.12 fabric didnt exist

but all the cool mods are on forge, like uhh mekanism and thermal series

also most people use fabric nowadays so a lot of mods cater to that so they can go together more those are mostly older mods that existed for 1.12 and werent ported past that

it is def not easier to develop on fabric the whole thing forge does is be stupidly easy to develop at the cost of performance and capability

personally i prefer it it makes more sense to me maybe im just weird though i mean even further proof that theres no real best thing its more based on what you prioritize and in the end personal preference

I have to agree, that now days, most mods are on both platforms. (Fabric has experienced huge growth and may become the standard) However, support for 1.12 modding is much better on forge. It really just depends on what mods you want to use on your server.
