Hi David, PyMOL uses OpenGL on macOS, so if Apple drops it, we're screwed :-( For now they have deprecated it, let's hope that they ship the libraries for a couple more years...

[PyMOL] PyMOL without OpenGL (OS X)?
As reported here: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/06/the-end-of-opengl-support-other-updates-apple-didnt-share-at-the-keynote/ Apple has declared that they are dropping support for OpenGL from OS X. How will that affect PyMOL on OS X? Does that version already use metal (or something else) or is it still OpenGL based?
