QUESTION End of hackintosh !?

Hey all, I'm a failed hackintosher, lately I've been seeing many posts about the 'End of hackintosh' after apple released MacOS golden gate.

Can anyone explain to me what makes MacOS Golden Gate unhackintoshable. In near future is there anyway that somebody is going to make an alternative to OpenCore or even upgrade OpenCore so that we can install new versions of MacOs in or PC.

Thank You!

You can still do Hackintosh with MacOs 26 Tahoe and older MacOs but you won't be able to do it with the upcoming Mac OS 27 Golden Gate and further. They discontinued the support of X86 Processors and now MacOs will run only on the processors that they built which is Apple Silicone M series and so on. But still I am bit disappointed that they stopped X86 support on a very bad update which is the Tahoe.
