So what’s the deal with Hackintoshes these days? (Methodology, what’s changed over the years, benefits compared to back in the day, etc)

Back in my day, we used an iBoot DVD to boot into the Snow Leopard install DVD!
Then I remember Clover and Chimera being a thing, which was a great improvement, but obviously still very ‘hacky.’
Then I remember the emergence of the ‘vanilla’ method, and OpenCore after that.
That seemed like the endgame of the Hackintosh, then I kept seeing things about bare metal VMs being the way to go - which seems super cool.

So what’s going on - what are most people doing these days and why?
