I don't perceive a Windows bias in Github, after all it was used for open source projects for a very long time before Microsoft bought GitHub. >> Having said that, I did build the MacAranym-Latest.xcodeproj a while >> ago, create a small improvement to the screenshot code, and I do run >> it on an M1.

Perhaps, but honestly it just looks like git to me with their own style of pull requests. Nothing outrageously different here. Do you have any concrete examples of "the situation for devels is inextricable" especially regarding GitHub? I think a Mac specific problem in Aranym is the use of SDL. That's a good library but mostly intended for games, and the story of gaming on the Mac has never been great. Contrast with gaming on iOS, and I wonder if the iOS version of SDL is more mature. For sure the Mac version of SDL is (even in SDL3!) using some private AppKit APIs internally which does not seem wise. -- Chris
