Can’t actually buy MacOS, you have to buy their hardware. For the time being connecting with an Apple Account is still fully optional.
I got macOS running in a VM on my Linux desktop. But then I didn’t want to connect my main iCloud account because I have heard they may ban you if you they detect you are doing stuff like this.
Without an iCloud account I can’t really do the stuff I actually would want to use macOS for, like using Apple’s movie editing software, or making iPhone apps with XCode. The default mail app is nicer than any alternative for Linux I’m aware of, at least.
I see four Linux logos and one of them looks suspiciously out of place
Lol, $100 would be a deal now. It’s $140-200 for Windows 11 depending on if you get Home or Pro.
I looked up how much it would cost to get a Windows Server license to run in a VM on my linux server, and that’s a minimum of $500 (but possibly more depending on factors that are irrelevant as an individual). I decided I’d run unactivated Win10Home instead with some registry hacks to make things auto-start the way I want. If that stops work, I guess I’ll just stop doing automated Windows CI.
I love Arch, but it’s disingenuous to say that the install process is as easy as Install? Done.
