It even has 1.3 support I don’t know what you are talking about.

While moltenVK allows us to use Vulkan on macos that is not a 0 effort port. There are still additional considerations that need to be taken (for example the portability subset features). It is not impossible to do but combined with the fact that we have more than enough work that still needs to be done on windows/linux and that none of us have the tools to test/debug on macOS it is simply not reasonable for us to support it right now.

My bad then.

so it will support macos in the future right?

If any team member has a machine with macOS to test on, then maybe
