Another reason major news like M1 support must be announced. As a volunteer, I could quickly post a correction, but in doing so this website reasonably asks for a reference link, for which there is none because MacPorts has made no such announcement. If MacPorts doesn’t tell its story, someone else will. > On Apr 22, 2021, at 10:09, Zero King <l...@macports.org> wrote: > > On Mon, Apr 19, 2021 at 01:24:51PM +0200, Mojca Miklavec wrote: >>> On Mon, 19 Apr 2021 at 12:45, Steven Smith wrote: >>> If a comparable announcement to this was made for MacPorts, I missed it: >>> https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/02/mac-utility-homebrew-finally-gets-native-apple-silicon-and-m1-support/ >> We never made any announcement since it basically "worked from day 1" >> (almost), and we never had any specific point in time when support for >> M1 was significantly improved.
