Or they could just use Metal 2, or Vulkan via MoltenVK

Edit: There's also MoltenGL, so they could run OpenGL applications with Metal.

I'm just being snarky about it. Sure, you can use MoltenVK to work around this for Vulkan, but Apple are lock-in jerks here not to support OpenGL to begin with and call it "legacy" when they don't offer Vulkan support either.

MoltenGL isn't FOSS so projects like Wine can't use it for instance.
