My company is currently working through this.
The entire dev team has Macs. Most have Intels. Many are on M1. Some are on M2.
Security/IT teams feel the pain, dealing with all sorts of weird things. And their solution lately is saying "fuck it" and giving the dev a M2. Which is a bandaid as what if M3 and onwards continues to break something?
Fortunately, my team builds software and runs everything through docker.
It's not like this came out of the blue. The PowerPC to Intel transition was recent enough that it's still fully documented on the web with forum posts by frustrated users. It's Apple. Their attitude has always been that users have to deal with it.
And yet they have a reputation for being easy to use.
That's Apple brainwashing. Anyone who ever tried to offer remote support via TeamViewer probably knows how Mac users then fail to grant screen recording and input permissions to TeamViewer. Before they do that on their own, they can get any remote support.
I do the same. Docker buildx to the rescue.
