MoltenVK, a Vulkan to Metal translation layer, has been purchased and open sourced by Valve under the Apache License 2.0. This means that the three main desktop platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux) have Vulkan support!
If GSdx gets ported to Vulkan, macOS can join in the game too!
Also, if PCSX2 ever gets ported to Android or iOS (other than DaemonPS2), Vulkan support can improve performance!
I personally want to make PCSX2 compile for Windows using CMake, add support for MinGW-w64, and port Play! recompiler to PCSX2. We'll see what happens...
