[osg-users] Does OSG work on Mac OS?

[Chris Hanson]

I will say, we do get OSG working on OSX and iOS for our clients, but
virtually every time we do so it involves hacking around some new monkey
wrench Apple has thrown in the works.

I think they really want to emphasize Metal, and are somewhat making OpenGL
a bastard step-child.
