MacOS Sonoma on Ryzen 7 7700X and RX 6800
Got MacOS already on my old PC but upgraded and had to install from scratch. After some problems it's now working flawlessly. Even my 1440p 165Hz Monitor works great (Had to use this: https://github.com/xzhih/one-key-hidpi/blob/master/README.md to get proper scaling)
- The anticipation is killing me…
- My 200$ hackintosh, I bought this used pc some years ago when it was about 200$ and last month decided to try my luck, should've tried sooner lol. (optiplex 3020)

Help everything on my computer is super small after I updated it.
You probably have a machine with a Retina display but it doesn’t see it as such. You could try this script and see if it fixes it. If not you’ll have to reinstall your OS.

Upgraded from Big Sur to Ventura on T480s
I used this https://github.com/xzhih/one-key-hidpi to enable display scaling than just the lowering resolution to get larger text and other elements.

[HELP] Graphic Glitch When Restarting (only when already log on)
Solved: The issue was the operation system, due to use of a tool called One Key Hidpi, the system would glitch when restarting. I came to this conclusion because the problem didn't happen when you were not logged.

Got the installer to boot! Now gotta fix the keyboard, trackpad and get the installer to be in english
I see you have a HiDPi screen you can change that with this to make it a 3:2 (like a Retina display) but its your choice

Samsung m7 monitor all resolutions are blurry after updating to ventura 13.1
I don't know why this has happened to you, but you can use RDM to add any wanted scaled resolution as HiDPI (retina quality) https://github.com/usr-sse2/RDM/releases

Exploring System76's New Rust Based Desktop Environment
It's really shitty of them to not expose this to the user directly through system preferences but you can specify custom resolutions (with "retina") using /Library/Displays/Contents/Resources/Overrides/ and an undocumented binary format. https://github.com/usr-sse2/RDM does that for you thankfully.

Just updated my late 2012 Mini to Monterey 12.1. Everything is fine except the Graphics (I have an Intel 4000 HD one). There is some distortion around the edges. Any idea what to do?
You need to download an app called RDM from https://github.com/usr-sse2/RDM/releases/tag/2.5.0
