They are successfully porting Mac OS onto every kind of modern computer over at the hackintosh subreddit, and I can't understand why there is so little interest for this stuff in the "hacker" sphere.

Surely, it must be a better option than Linux if you want to get the most out of a PC computer? At least for 10 more years.

>better option than Linux

I'm not sure why it would. Why would anyone want to hack on different proprietary software with no supplier support and whose days are clearly numbered (Apple's move to ARM)?

For usability I mean. It's clearly an interesting technical feat.

		Because it has all the advantages of Linux + all the advantages of Windows + many advantages of its own. So to have a fully fledged and more usable computer, for those who don't want to purchase the Apple hardware. And the latest Mac OS still supports Intel, so you'll get many more years out of a machine. For what I know, the last 10 versions of MacOS are still very usable.
