‘unsupported’ ? This is not ‘unsupported’. As it could be, I suspect, to many others. Now, if I can not write code that can compile and test-run on an M1 Mac and then share the executable with others also with M1 Macs, the M1 Mac is useless to me. Mainly for performing certain kinds of data analysis and written to run under Linux, but I have also adapted some of it to run on Macs, where it also has been and is working quite well. And I do not mean this hypothetically: this is something I actually have been doing for decades now. If I develop software that then share with others because I am confident enough that it works as intended, so I can commit myself to taking care of most problems people may run up against while using it, it is because I definitely approve of it, regardless of what Apple, or whoever else might say, or where they would like to keep it. It is software approved and supported by its developers, but not submitted by them to be kept in the Apple store. Alex: “ if it is not approved by the developers and not uploaded to Apple’s Mac Store…no matter if they can physically be run on those Macs…”
