VirtualBox KVM Public Release
Yes, I recently had to compile some stuff on Windows (I'm on an AMD Linux host) and VirtualBox just wouldn't start Microsoft's Windows dev VM (the one they provide for free for Virtualbox). I ended up learning how to use qemu and it works great...and as a bonus I was able to run a hackintosh (via https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM) and it works near flawlessly, which was something I was never able to accomplish with Virtualbox (granted I haven't tried in a few years).
I'm pretty happy with Qemu now, even if it's jsut a CLI interface. I was tempted to try the virt-* stuff, but honestly it seems like one more thing to learn so I'm going to hold off until I need something like copy/paste between VMs and can't figure it out in qemu direct.

NixThePlanet - Run macOS, Windows and more via a single Nix command + nixosModules
Working on a patch to include it as a flake input instead of vendoring it in the repo, so this should no longer be true. I use the QCOW2s for OpenCore from osx-kvm that I have not figured out how to reproduce yet https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM/blob/master/OpenCore/OpenCore.qcow2

[PROJECT] Working on a project called ultimate-macOS-KVM!
For almost a year, I have been coding a little project in Python intended to piggyback on the framework of kholia's OSX-KVM project, known as ultimate-macOS-KVM, or ULTMOS.

FreeBSD Bhyve Virtualization
I just researched a bit, mac os x guest vm with pcie passthrough seems possible on linux.

VirGL
VirGL is definitely an interesting project, but all one has to do to get GPU passthrough working (from a Linux QEMU host to any guest OS) is: 1.) research a cheap, secondary GPU that is natively supported by the guest OS, 2.) plug such a secondary GPU into a PCIe slot on the host and hook it up to the primary monitor with a secondary cable (D-Sub vs. DVI, etc.), 3.) setup Linux to ignore the secondary GPU at boot and configure a QEMU VM for the GPU passthrough. The whole process takes perhaps one or two hours and as works flawlessly, with no stability issues. (Switching across the two GPU cables can be accomplished in software by using Display Data Channel /DDC/ utilities and switching keyboard/mouse can be accomplished by using evdev /event device/ passthrough.)

What are the current best methods for virtualizing MacOS on Linux?
I also see there is KVM-OSX which looks to be actively maintained, but I haven't heard anything about it.

Lima: A nice way to run Linux VMs on Mac
You can use qemu/libvirt/kvm on any Linux host to run macOS pretty easily these days[1]. I run Ventura on unraid with nvidea gpu passthrough and it’s been fairly painless.
You can also run macOS in docker, but it’s ultimately running through qemu/kvm as well[2]

MacOS Virtualization using VMware
I needed to install an unlocker from GitHub to enable options in the main screen.

[question] iPod Touch 3G stuck in recovery mode and unable to restore. Anyone knows what's wrong? I turned it off and on one day and now it's stuck on recovery mode and i can't restore it
Or a VM (Virtiual Machine here are examples: VirtualBox and VMware) to install older windows versions. Maybe even macOS,but for that you need a patcher.

I am trying to make a macOS 13 virtual machine by following the tutorial from techrechhard. Unfortunately, I cannot get it to work.
So in other words, you did it wrong. First of all, avoid .VDMK's, you never know what's in them, use an .ISO. Preferably one created on a MAC. As for your choice of VM, VirtualBox is total shit for running MAC on, use VMware instead. You'll need to install it, then run the unlocker tool found here: https://github.com/paolo-projects/unlocker After that is done, create your virtual machine, but before booting, edit the .VMX file by adding the following lines at the bottom:
- MacOS in VMware?
- MacOS on VMware Workstation without Unlocker?

Is unlocked 3.0.4 from Paolo projects safe?
I au install macOS in VMware. I am following tutorial from makeusof and it says me to install the VMware patch tool from this website. Is the unlocked from this person safe?

Best VM for running macOS
For me, Vmware Player ran the smoothest. For this you need the following, because virtualization of MacOS on non-MacOs devices is not supported by Vmware: https://github.com/paolo-projects/unlocker.
