This article was published on November 24, 2020Apple Silicon has taken the tech world by storm. Whether it’s , , or even&nbsp;Linus Torvalds , Apple’s new hardware is the talk of the town.Despite things going as smoothly as in Apple’s wildest dreams most users still have a pressing question: do their favorite apps work on Apple Silicon yet?Thankfully, the beautiful genius that is&nbsp; has put together a website to answer that query. So, everyone, please say hello to&nbsp;Are you into gadgets? And apps? And other cool tech stuff? Then this weekly newsletter is for you.The idea behind the site is simple: it shows you if specific apps will work on laptops and desktops with Apple’s in-house chip. Easy to get your head around, right?It shows you a list of software and, if they have native M1 support, they’re given a green tick. Here’s an image that shows you what’s going on far clearer than lots of words could:As you can see, the site also shows you if the app you’re after has Rosetta 2 support. Effectively, Rosetta 2 is an emulator, allowing a large number of apps designed for Intel machines to run on Apple Silicon. If this is supported, you will still be able to use that software on an M1-toting machine.You know what? God bless&nbsp;&nbsp;— it’s an amazing website that should make purchasing decisions a lot simpler.As exciting as the M1 chip and all its speed is, it’s pretty pointless for you to run and grab a machine if the software you use for work isn’t supported. In this environment, a site like this that shows you simply if your favorite apps work on Apple Silicon is worth its weight in gold. (Yeah, technically, the website doesn’t really weigh&nbsp;anything, but you get what I’m sauying).Anyway, that’s enough of that. All that’s left to say is go and visit&nbsp;&nbsp;if you’re thinking about picking up a new M1 machine. You’d be silly not to.Subscribe to our snarky newsletter all about consumer tech.
