Considering how many developer-focussed apps were written for macOS first/only because of the massive adoption of macbooks by developers after the rise of iOS apps, this is an extremely narrow perspective. The appeal of Darling isn't bringing macOS to Linux, the appeal is breaking down the walls put up by shortsighted developers who decided not to bother porting the apps they developed for macOS over to a different platform because "every developer I know uses macOS". Linux users who would want something like Darling aren't aspiring to be macOS users, they are Linux users who want/need to use software written by macOS users who didn't put in the effort to port their software.
