Server Version#: 1.29.2  
Player Version#: 1.58.1

Do you have any updates on when or if you will be supporting M1 Macs natively in your desktop clients? I know PMS has now been updated, but the clients are still not updated even 2 years after M1 was released. I read elsewhere that you were waiting on a bugfix in QT, but I believe that has been fixed: [https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-85279](https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-85279). If you don’t have a timeline yet, can you at least provide a thread or status page where you will provide updates in the future?

There’s a feature request for this:

Thank you @pshanew. It looks like most of that thread was focused on the Server/PMS and PIA/VPN, and has had no response from a Plexian (possibly because it went off-topic). I am specifically inquiring about the Client and looking for a status update.
