Vulkan is not available on macOS, it is the Emulation Layer that is available, with it comes huge performance cost
Stop misleading people, this is a problem with open source and "linux" people, their strategies are ugly, they love to mislead people, and they take everything for granted
I am glad apple went with Metal wich is cleaner and more performant than Vulkan
Wine and Vulkan are a huge mistake, no wonder why linux usage on steam is stuck bellow 0.7% despite MASSIVE investments
and I'm not surprised if you like apple like god-like company

The bigger issue is that Metal is so limited and backwards that it is hard to even support Vulkan to Metal call translation at all. Metal is more of a restricted Mantel API clone.

The title is a bit misleading. Formally would mean that Apple stopped being a jerk and started supporting Vulkan.

Go look at reality for a moment.

Note that I specifically don't claim that Vulkan is cleaner or more performant than Metal and that I'm willing to consider any and all factual evidence in support of your argument, for example in the form of equivalent benchmarks (including source code) made on the exact same Apple (= Intel + AMD) hardware to the extent that it is possible.

Do you really think that OpenGL is as successful as it is today because of its performance? No, it is because it works. Vulkan is a DirectX and Metal killer

I am looking forward to the day of OpenGL -> Vulkan -> MoltenVK -> Metal and still seeing massive perf increases over the apple openGL implementation
