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 never heard of anybody having their iCloud account blocked after using hackintosh and I have qhuite a few friends using it. I think as long as you have actual apple products connected to that account, they won’t block it as to not deter their customers.
The only case I read was on reddit, but they created a new account from scratch and the ban might not even have been related to the hackintosh but just because it was deemed suspicious.
You sound like the kinda person who mixes coca cola and fanta together
That would be a very spezial drink
