Is the redistribution of MacOS images allowed by the license or is this project distributing illegal copies in plain sight on docker hub?
Idk but Correlium virtualizes iOS instances and was sued by Apple before settling the case.

You can run linux on a mac. In fact older intel used macs are inexpensive and run pretty well with little noise. ubuntu installs and runs easily. Other versions of linux - it depends.
Ubuntu 24.04 is a disaster in my mid-2015 MBP. Ubuntu 22.04 is surprisingly good though.
To be fair, I'm not sure any linux veterans are using Ubuntu. Its a popular OS, but its not a good OS. (Think terrible pop music that teenagers will still listen to)
Even Debian has lost its favorability by having sooo much legacy bloat, bugs, and outdated kernels that wont run Nvidia GPUs(2023) or other recent peripherals.
I'd be much more curious how Fedora or OpenSUSE hold up.

Not sure that would be the case since it also includes this part > that is already running the Apple Software Running Linux on Apple hardware would not follow that part of the EULA.
good thing I can't think of any reason to run macos.
Some unfortunately needs Xcode for building iOS or macOS apps locally even if you are coding in unity, flutter, react native, qt, unreal

I run Linux on a Mac book air, so this would allow me to run macos in a controlled environment if I could think of a good reason to do so.

#88Huh, why does this repo have its own glibc? Let's check the commit history: Self-host in the repo glibc to emphasize the temporariness of this patch sickcodes committed Feb 12, 2021 Seriously though, this is great.

This is clearly illegal
"Illegal" might be a bit strong, "Against the EULA" a bit more realistic, which may or may not be illegal, depending on the context and involved country.
