I don't think that there is a need to categorize these by operating systems. For example you can use Homebrew on Linux too.
Homebrew is definitely an exception, will separate that.
And order of methods should be AUR > Brew > Scoop > Go.
There shouldn't be an "order" of methods to use; one can choose from the many available options.
I'm pretty sure users are aware of their operating system and only care about specific package manager support.

There should be an order, which is by relevancy. Windows users usually are not very terminal oriented bunch (and this is completely subjective opinion of mine). So as most of the users will be probably on Linux/Mac, these systems' package managers should be higher up the list, so they could be found faster.

This is what categorizing them is for, Linux/Mac users can find their package managers in their respective categories quickly. As support for more package managers appear, categorizing them can help organize the list and reduce clutter. Besides, they can also just use the search function.
Updates on this? I have sorted the list alphabetically (except for go), so the order is Homebrew > Linux > Windows > Go. What do you think?

Having "For Linux and macOS users" doesn't make much sense even if we add additional package manger support, as there are not many supported for both OS'es. I'd say dropping the OS names and sorting in alphabetical order is good enough then.
Done.
It's not sorted in alphabetical order now ?
Ah right, fixed.
Nice! Thank you for adding this to Scoop and your patience :clap:
Adding a reference here as I just added

to Scoop. Also categorized the package managers via OS (Windows, Linux, and macOS) for organization.
