Give it up. People have been predicting this for 15 years.

You can’t have a development machine locked down like iOS. As long as the Mac is the development machine at apple it will need to be able to run arbitrary code.

It will still run arbitrary code... Within macos...

But they'll remove support for other OS's

  • What support? Asahi had to fight to exist, especially early on when they essentially had to reimplement much of the graphics pipeline. And now its in mainline linux - short of a complete hostile lockdown of the bootloader, it’s not like they support other OS’s very much as is.

I mean it'd be pretty easy for Apple to just make a special version of the OS/bootloader/whatever for their internal use
