A Wine-like Hackintosh is coming
-
Was coming down the line ever since M1. I guess you could try with a arm hackintosh.
Yep, I know the writing was on the wall ever since they announced Silicon. While annoyed at the time, getting out from under Intel's thumb was probably the right choice, and they're way more powerful machines as a result. Still not a fan of Apple myself, but wanting to do it themselves is respectable.

What's it called?

Abandoned mine several years ago. Kind of a shame, they were a good option for a while for people who weren't windows fans but didn't want to run linux full time. Apple just doesn't really have any offerings for people who want a desktop that's upgradeable, but don't want to drop the money on a Mac Pro.
The SSD in the M4 mini is upgradable, for those who aren’t aware.

Is this a take in regards to soldering in new flash chips or replacing a board and then needing to wrestle Apple support during an RMA to replace a faulty component (because I quiet confidently believe, Apple will cross check your hardware with their records from the serial number).
And I don't believe regular PC manufacturers/OEMs are that hard to argue with if I insert my own SSD.

It’s replaceable, it’s not upgradable.
Apple doesn’t use standard NVMe M.2 drives. The controller is built into the SoC rather than being on the storage device itself.

Impossible
Why the downvotes? Apple silicon ARM is not the same ISA as any existing ARM. There's extra undocumented instructions and features. Unless you want to reverse engineer all that, and make your own ARM CPU, you cannot run (all of) macOS on an off the shelf ARM chip. Making it effectively "impossible".

I’m aware, but I have upgraded my 256GB to 2TB so not sure what you’re on about.
