The best way for us to get to work on the patcher, fix issues and add enhancements is having the hardware in-hand. As a hobby project, neither of the main developers can afford to buy every legacy Mac to test on.</p> <p>The best way to support us in all honesty is to donate any old hardware you no longer need, as this allows us to have machines to test locally and push fixes much faster. While we appreciate cash donations, this makes it much more difficult for us to handle as an organization.</p> <p>Main sections of help we'd appreciate:</p> <ul><li>Donating any Mac you own
|
|
<ul><li>Does require SSE4,1 CPU to test on Sierra and newer however</li></ul></li> <li>Donating any spare SATA SSDs
|
|
<ul><li>Having extra SSDs on hand allows us to quickly and easily test specific builds of macOS without having to wipe drives and reinstall as much</li></ul></li> <li>Aiding by buying items in our Amazon Wishlist
