Yea it requires M1 or later to run on macOS

Sounds like a good reason to upgrade!

The performance is something else which in its own is a good reason to upgrade

This is true, even the first ones from 2020, my M1 air screen got broken recently, I checked if it was worth it to upgrade to the newer ones but ended up buying the same M1 air from 2020 again

Wish I could afford to. Maybe soon. Often it’s literally two clicks to add Intel support by switching the build to Catalyst and adding macOS as a target.

I got Damus to run on Intel Mac that way in 10 minutes.

In the meantime I’ll just keep burning my lap with that i7 MacBook Pro. 😭

Can you explain how you got it working on intel in more detail?

Yes. Give me a few to recreate the process and I’ll post screen shots.

Here ya go. Looks like they've added this to the master branch since last time I messed with this.

Runs great. I'm going to see if it works with Nostur now.

Oh I didn’t know that, I will check how to fix that

Is Nostur open source?

I like that Nostur has a post preview option. All clients should implement this, maybe even hide the post button before previewing. I’ve fat-fingered many a typo. Once I dropped my phone and posted half a message.

I will make the code available in the coming months, need to do some cleaning up first

Ok. See my replies to #[4]​ for how to add a catalyst target to your build. Maybe (hopefully) you won’t have to do too much to support older Macs.

If it’s not that easy, I certainly understand not wanting to support an aging architecture, but I think Intel Macs still make up a majority of them in circulation.
