I used Kholia's scripts[1] on Qemu with Virsh. I didn't have much trouble other than some SELinux permission issues which I resolved quickly.

iCloud/imessage have always been finicky with Hackintosh, but in my experience setting the correct serial number with appropriate Mac model is the key to resolve those issues.

With just couple of years of Hackintosh scene left before support for x86 Macs are dropped completely, a VM Hackintosh makes more sense to me than building a physical Hackintosh.

Even a VM will stop working soon as Intel support is removed from the OS and apps start demanding newer OS versions.

Or is it possible to emulate Apple Silicon on a VM now?


Yes macOS VM will also be useless too in some years but a useless VM is better than a useless purpose built computer for hackintosh.

Qemu is capable of ARM emulation but I don't think its capable of emulating sophisticated SoC like Apple Silicon.
