Hackintoosh Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 There are Windows images that have been groomed with privacy improvements & more. Does anything like this exist for OSX? Or is there only the Apple-blessed OSX downloads? What is your preferred download source for OSX (for the purpose of KVM guest installs)? Thanks!

spakk Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Hi Hackintoosh, As far as I know, there is only the Apple appstore==> https://apps.apple.com or access for developers ==> https://developer.apple.com/ to download the other additional tools.

Hackintoosh Posted October 22, 2020 Author Share Posted October 22, 2020 Not talking about other tools, but the best source to download OSX itself. The secondary question is if anyone has reworked an OSX installation image to be more like AME (ameliorated dot info - my link was removed for some reason). This is an example of some devs who have reworked windows to remove some of the cruft & spyware of Windows. And it is common knowledge that OSX has (at the very minimum) services that gather user data, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Revenger1 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 You can use gibmacOS to download the recovery image pretty easily and put it on a USB. I don't know if any redistribution of it which takes drift out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iLennart Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I haven't heard about any modified OS X versions that fit your description.. The download-source question seems to be answered. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hackintoosh Posted October 29, 2020 Author Share Posted October 29, 2020 Thanks. Seems using gibmacOS is the safest way to get OSX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
