Does Energia plan to support macOS 11 Big Sur?

Forget about macOS 11 Big Sur as it introduces too many disruptions.

Keep macOS 10.15 Catalina for stability and support of the LaunchPad and BoosterPack boards.

Even better, previous macOS 10.14 Mojave runs both 64-bit and 32-bit applications.

Any plan to fix it? I am using platformio and there is same issue. I am blocked :( Probably I will just install linux on my macbook...

Shouldn’t Rosetta provide automatic support for Intel applications and run them seamlessly on M1?

Too late, Big Sur is installed ... am I to abandon Energia?

I am afraid I can't help you much, as I've switched to Linux.

Does the magic of Rosetta work?

Support for Big Sur (intel), would be nice or at least so it doesn't crash when trying to start it. Is there any workaround?

Here's some crash data if that helps https://paste.uguu.se/?be3d6af32be02c94#DnCmdvmmpcPt3qcDT3JYf85M8bvZfTcH3R7yETbNY8n5

I have taken an even more radical approach: I switched to Linux.

Debian / Gnome is stable and light, and Visual studio Code works very well.

No regrets.

I have installed Linux mint on my macbook and this solves a lot of issues for me. Apple doesn't produce good reliable software anymore.

To be honest after all updates on Big Sur recently my Macbook doesn't crash or act up like it did in the beginning. Downgrading to Catalina or switching to Linux just for one program seems rather dramatic. But each to their own I guess.

Understandable if it crashes that often, for me it was around once a week until 3 months or so when the updates fixed something. I do agree that Apple shouldn't have rushed Big Sur so much since new minor problems keep appearing for people, at least they release updates to fix them which is nice... I guess.

If all fails just go way back to Snow Leopard <3

The major issues I faced were

  • the drivers still 32-bit,
  • the system extensions (kext) no longer supported by the new release of macOS,
  • hardware manufacturers no longer supporting macOS.

Still rocking a 2014 MacBook Pro so I think y'all very unlucky.

I was surprised how nicely Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) works.
