Yes, I have an M1 iMac. Getting the right JSON::Parse for my architecture was what was needed... I get data now.
But it didn't give me the "want x86_64, have amd64" error... it just said it wasn't installed. Checking with GnuCash...better; not greyed out, but not working properly. I think something is failing, so it just stops on the others. I probably need to figure out where the log file is to find out which item it cannot get.
