I guess you could also virtualize it through qemu on arm to get good compatability

Was coming down the line ever since M1. I guess you could try with a arm hackintosh.

Just an idea. I still use win 11.

As I understand it, MacOS’s desktop relies on GPU instructions that haven’t been implemented in any non-MacOS hosted virtualization environment. So you can have a MacOS VM running on a MacOS host just fine, but you can’t run a MacOS VM in a Linux host, even on official Mac hardware, at least if you want the actual desktop environment. The Asahi Linux people have mentioned it before.

Impossible

Why the downvotes? Apple silicon ARM is not the same ISA as any existing ARM. There’s extra undocumented instructions and features. Unless you want to reverse engineer all that, and make your own ARM CPU, you cannot run (all of) macOS on an off the shelf ARM chip. Making it effectively “impossible”.

Fair, I was not going to try.

Exactly this. ARM is killing Hackintosh, and it’s been talked about a while. Such a shame too.

Yep, I know the writing was on the wall ever since they announced Silicon. While annoyed at the time, getting out from under Intel’s thumb was probably the right choice, and they’re way more powerful machines as a result. Still not a fan of Apple myself, but wanting to do it themselves is respectable.
