I completely forgot about this one until now - those sweet #hackintosh days
I had an Acer netbook that took to Snow Leopard just fine and ran that until I could afford a full desktop #hackintosh. That’s what started me into liking Apple initially and I still keep coming back to Macs today despite my love for #Linux.
I spent many hours trying to install macOS on my Windows PC.. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing.
Spoiler: It actually worked.

Guess no one’s doing #Hackintosh on the #fediverse, LMAO.

For anyone running Hackintosh on Sonoma / Sequoia / Tahoe with Broadcom FullMAC WiFi:
I wrote a detailed guide to AppleBCMWLANCompanion (BCMC) based on the official docs + InsanelyMac thread + a Tahoe + BCM43602 success report.
It covers supported OS builds, firmware layout, device properties, AppleVTD/VT‑d, limitations (no AWDL/AirDrop) and when BCMC vs OCLP vs new hardware makes sense.
