This seems to be happening to me, and I'm on win11, so i think its a wider issue outside of just MacOS
This is a known issue due to certain privacy protections in Safari, along with some other browsers like Brave and some filter lists within uBlock origin. These restrict connections to your local machine, which prevents the Replugged website from communicating with Discord. For us to fix this, we would need to add an alternate way for these browsers to connect to Replugged, which presents a variety of issues.
An easy workaround is to copy the link of the addon from the store and use it in the /install
command. Alternatively, Chrome and Firefox should both work, so you can try accessing the store from one of those if you aren't already.
