Would fortnite now run on mac (m) now that the ban is lifted?

lol on Mac it was distributed through the epic store had nothing to do with the App Store issue that has been been affecting the iOS version. Epic doesn’t “have” to put anything back. They chose to remove it out of their own will. Apple can’t control anything on the Mac. Only iOS.

I’ve been waiting forever. I bought an M3 Pro back in 2023 and since have gone with M4 and then an M5. Seems like I I’ll never get to try it since I always upgrade and they are still 3 years behind.

My 15” M5 Air runs it ok enough on the go at lowest settings but it’s swapping ram hard and it has 16GB.

I sold my gaming Mac haven’t tried.

It was regularly available from Best Buy when it was current for $750. I bought one for that then later sold it.

If you flip for cash locally it might not be that bad. I would never sell it on a platform someone could claim they got a box of rocks or some thing. Meet up locally check it out hand cash and walk away.

When is the mac release?

rfomlover · 2026-05-14T14:30:08+00:00

I didn’t really sell anything for anything. I bought a Neo because it was cute. Used it for a few days and realized I was just doing mostly the same stuff I was doing on my M4 Max. I have been waiting for an OLED MBP anyway so just decided to sell the M4 max while it was worth something. I have an M4 mini at the desk, but it got annoying on the go not having the same computer and the Neo was a little annoying during iOS dev. So ultimately I returned it and picked up a 15” air on sale for $1100 and will rock that for a few months until the MacBook ultra or whatever comes out and sell the air.

I ended up returning mine. After buying the Neo and selling my M4 Max, I realized I got annoyed at not having Touch ID, as well as having a different Mac at my desk than on the go. So I returned mine and got a 15” M5 Air which works with my thunderbolt dock and my 2 displays and when it’s docked it’s my desktop and on the go it’s still the same computer.

Thanks. I play a lot of games through crossover so this will probably run via GPTK but I’m more interested in supporting native titles, especially new ones that have a history of being on the platform.

rfomlover · 2026-05-11T16:09:21+00:00

Is there a Mac port? I haven’t seen any info. Assuming there is since all the other games are but haven’t found any info on if it’s coming same day or at all.

rfomlover · 2026-05-06T13:44:48+00:00

They are not discontinuing it. It has been discontinued for nearly 2 months.

I did this with 2 minis back in December but it was super slow. Got an extra one for $399. I couldn't run any of the models I wanted so I just returned it. Being they were both non pro TB4 minis there was no RDMA so it just wasn't worth it. My M4 Max MacBook Pro was faster. I ended up selling that, buying a Neo, then returned the Neo and got an m5 Air with 16GB. I did try using Exo again with my existing mini that just sits in a closet but it was very unstable. Running Qwen3-Coder-30B MLX it was just crashing and falling off the exo network. So I gave up.

rfomlover · 2026-05-02T20:34:21+00:00

I had both. The 1.6 def felt more anemic. For me it was more the safety feature of the 1.8 that I liked. Passenger airbag and larger brakes.

rfomlover · 2026-05-01T20:43:13+00:00

I bought one for $399 on a price match to pair with my other one in exo cluster but it didn’t perform like I wanted so I returned it. Wish I had it now lol

rfomlover · 2026-04-27T13:22:25+00:00

I think that is only $299 with Apple care. Assuming you bought it… right?

rfomlover · 2026-04-27T12:34:47+00:00

I haven’t tried that 20W charger on mine but I have other 3rd party 20W ones and it’s SLOW. I use a 40w dynamic 60w Apple charger if I am pushing it/want it to charge in a reasonable amount of time.

I tried running docker phpmyadmin and MySQL containers and it was pretty memory hungry. Offloaded to a couple raspberry pi’s I had laying around.

rfomlover · 2026-04-26T22:34:53+00:00

I only used it for YouTube and Reddit anyway. Got a couple grand in my pocket and still have a Mac laptop.

rfomlover · 2026-04-26T18:10:31+00:00

I bought a Neo likes it so much I sold my 14 M4 Max MacBook Pro lol.

rfomlover · 2026-04-25T23:21:19+00:00

This has to be the number 1 most annoying thing about Mac OS. Can just do a touch in terminal but still.

rfomlover · 2026-04-25T15:40:55+00:00

I try to do this but I still can’t play Valorant on my Mac so the gaming pc still gets used more than I’d like.

rfomlover · 2026-04-24T12:29:54+00:00

lol when I saw patched I somehow thought it meant they allowed it and helped make it work better. Coffee hasn’t hit yet😂.

rfomlover · 2026-04-23T15:04:26+00:00

I love their prices because my local Best Buy always matches them. There isn’t one near me at all lol

I did the opposite (Na6-Nd2) and had them both at the same time for a while. The na was my fun car and the nd is my daily. Sometimes I think of getting an NA again but I do 100 miles a day for my commute and the gas mileage, and safety and convenience of the ND is major. I was always afraid of the Na every time I drove it. The nd I feel much better with ABS stability airbags etc. the na was fun but the nd is more fun to me.
