@darius I was going to say "my mac is 2013 and running big sur and it's fine for dev" (unless someone wants me to run docker) and now I realized this is not the 'new' operating system. so I'm not sure if my feedback is helpful

@christa Do you use homebrew? Because that's my main pain point with the old OSes, homebrew just kind of refuses to do its thing

@darius hm I do! but I don't know if I've updated it in a bit, even though I've been doing consistent development on the rails forum. let me try right now

@darius hah by "let me try" I mean, let me look at this for some amount of time before trying anything that might be scary

@darius @christa this is what i ran into with my 2013 macbook trying to do a new build of playscii late last year. after hella upgrading & arm-twisting i got a build that ran on newer intel macs but a universal build that also runs on M1s still a purely theoretical possibility. def left me with the feeling that nothing can stand against apple's forced march of its devs and that they just don't want me to support their OS with my free software.
