      it said "hey um internal keyboard and mouse might not work on this mac for the install"
      and he used an external keyboard since he was on an IMac
      the fact it was from 2009 probably was the reason, it couldve still used an intel CPU and therefore sonoma might not work as intended, because of the change in CPU architechture

    I see you didn't read the instructions because it's almost not appropriate. However, you got this, and I noticed that installing Yosemite and then High Sierra from Mavericks takes more time. Instead, you should make a macOS High Sierra install bootable so that you can install it directly from Mavericks. That would be faster and save you a lot of time.
    I've been a Mac user since 2012 and have extensive experience with all the Macs I've used.
    Great work, and keep it up!

      Patching an installer and forcing the latest macOS version to work on it with also providing patches to fix issues. The reason it was super laggy when he first installed was because it didn’t have any hardware acceleration and opencore had to install the driver to make it work.
      Imo if you’re gonna do this you should also upgrade your old mac’s ram and change the hard drive to and ssd. That will make a world of a difference. Cpu and gpu can be upgraded in older imac’s too if you’re up for that challenge.

    Without a doubt, macOS Mojave is the best option for this kind of Mac. Older Macs without Metal support have issues with the latest versions, which makes even simple apps extremely sluggish. You can play older games that are no longer supported by later macOS versions thanks to Mojave's support for 32-bit applications.

    The irony of this video is that you actually can play games because this machine is compatible with 32 bit, but you have to stop at Mojave which is the last OS with 32 bit Support. And you need at least a 2012 machine with a metal compatible graphics card in order to really get away with the newer versions. Even with an integrated gpu, as long as it’s Metal compatible you can even get a 2012 MacBook Pro running smoothly on Ventura at least.
