What is the stupid fkin language?????

I think by "stupid mac language" he means Swift (C-based lang by Apple).

macOS does support C/C++/Objective-C etc. for obvious reasons, but as macOS has different file formats, folder locations and APIs (the GUI API SLAM uses doesnt run on macOS) so it'd effectively require a re-write to work.

It can work on the Mono framework. https://www.mono-project.com/docs/getting-started/install/mac/ However the real problem would be injecting the audio. Process handlers on BSD systems are entirely different from windows. That being said, it would not require a complete rewrite, but simply good knowledge of MacOS background operations and maybe some Objective-C bindings.
