Feature request: Intel support
Hey! So, I know that this might not be a priority at all, but a lot of people still use Intel Macs (and many will still use them for the next 2-3 years). I would like to ask if it's possible to support Intel Macs in the very near future. To whomever picks this up, thanks in advance!
Can I ask what "Intel support" means to you? Do you expect the AppStore release to support Intel Macs, or do you want local Xcode builds to run on your Intel Mac?
The current "Mac version" is actually the iPadOS version running on Apple silicon Macs.
It's true that many are still using intel Macs, but you will probably have to wait for a native Mac app, which is perhaps possible since Ice Cubes is built with SwiftUI.
One could make a Mac Catalyst target; I wonder how much work that would actually be...
That what Twitter did with their Mac app, but I still think a native SwiftUI app is better than Catalyst, let's wait and see.
I just tried it for fun and it worked out of the box. It's probably not a great Mac app, but it's pretty good for no code. The downside is it's one more target to maintain, so I can totally see the reason to not do it because you want it to be as good as it can be, not just an afterthought. But for @EuSouManuelReis just turning on Catalyst would give them a Mac version that works on Intel.
This is not only nice for Intel Mac users. A native catalyst build also has the advantage for people like me having SIP disabled.
