Do you trust the bootloaders that you have to use to run Hackintosh? I haven't run one in several years, but at the time I used the Clover bootloader. It was the best I could find but it was written in Russia. I just couldn't trust it when accessing any sensitive information on my computer.
Sorry if you have already answered in another thread.
I still use Clover. It's a relatively old project and it's completely open source. It has been worked on by a lot of talented developers over the years, some of who are based in Russia—but I'm disinclined to dismiss it out of hand because of that. Particularly since it long predates the most-recent international craziness.
The new standard for Hackintosh bootloaders is OpenCore, but I've been using Clover for years and haven't had any problems with it. And, I suspect Clover has been tested more extensively with older versions of OS X, just by the nature of when it was developed and released.
I haven't played with hackintosh in like 12 years. It was a hassle then a couple years after I stopped I got a real imac.
I'm not sure what the current deal with hackintosh is, but I'm vaguely under the impression that there's at least one that is open source, then there's an open source boot loader rEFInd as well.
Hopefully someone can confirm or refute my impression.
