there are ways of running macOS on non-Apple hardware, but it requires a fair bit of tech savvy, and you usually need to build your own machine. not sure how easy it is nowadays, but i ran a macOS desktop on a PC for years without many issues. its all linux for me now, though.
Oh you mean a good old fashioned hackintosh! I’m aware, but every update seemed to be a pain in the ass (experimented with that in the past too, I have about a decade of IT experience). I’d rather just get an official Mac. The hackintosh is a cool project but not something I’d want to make a daily driver. I know some people can make it work and I’m happy for them but I found it to be too fiddly.
For anybody else interested though you can find more info at this link
yeah. the proprietary nonsense is what pushed me over to linux in the first place, and that was before they started with their super special ARM chips. RISC-V is still on the horizon, though! hopefully open source ISA will prevail in the decades to come.

Not when “Intel based Macs” go out of support. There is no way to run the M1/2 MacOS version without having Apple hardware.
