For added irony, my Hackintosh installed the update without missing a beat.


I have been a Hackintosh user since 2010 and I’ve never had a system break in point release. If you set it up right, it’s not that common.

Major version upgrades are an entirely different matter, although even they sometimes just work with Clover.


I just moved my system from Clover to OpenCore last week. A couple of hours of paying attention and reading and voila.


So did my Mac and my wife's Mac. I don't see the irony. This probably affects a small subsets of Macs [1] and probably still the count of successful updates is much higher for Apple Macs than Hackintoshes. But yes, if you cherry-pick anecdotes, you can get any outcome you want.

[1] Which is still terrible, these things should just not happen. Bad quality control from Apple' side and inexcusable for > 1000 Euro 'premium' computers.


Most hackintoshes are configured not to auto-update too.
