    What in the world kind of job makes you set up a Hackintosh? 😭 while I’m stuck here with company managed Windows on a Thinkpad where I can’t even customise my wallpaper…

    I built and set up mine back in the High Sierra days (hobby project ofc.) I kept it going for years but finally gave up a few months ago; didn’t feel worth it anymore when Intel is on its way out of the Apple ecosystem. Could have easily keep it going if I didn’t care about staying up to date with MacOS major releases.

      Probably a contractor role at a company that uses some Mac software in the role they’re hiring for. So it’s more of a situation of “do you have a Mac you can use for this job?”. That’s my guess anyhow.
