Well I think you can run it on a VM, but yeah, I'm out as well.
Can u have a macos docker image? I don't see why u couldn't have such a thing?
Idk but that would be the only way it would be something I would consider. But (un?)fortunately, I live in a country where facebook messenger, not iMessage, is the dominating messaging platform.
I don't even know what the dominant messenger is here in Australia I just tell everyone that if they wanna message me they better be using signal or get ignored. Some get it most don't. Those that get signal get invites to parties hangouts and responses. Those that don't get their messages looked at once every 6months when I remember that those apps exist and I could be bothered to swap accounts on my phone.
