I myself only use "unsupported" macs I'm fine till oclp(opencore) stops supporting them. Probably when apple drops the last intel mac.

This is a cool project. Thanks for this I had not heard of it before.

Really easy to use and set up. Highly recommend when you have an older mac(my 2012 i5 8gb doing perfectly fine for lighter tasks and normal use)

It's been pretty much the go to option for unsupported macs since dosdude1 pachter was discontinued.

I've got a 2011 MBP that I've run Linux on with little issues. What does this do that is different or better?

[–] Sephtis-6@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think that you can't really compare it to linux since oclp let's you run OSX. I wouldn't say that it's better or worse just different.

Okay let me word that differently, what does it bring to the table?

It's an incredibly easy way to get the osx completely(most of the time) working on older/unsupported macs. Which massively increases the lifespan of a mac
