      Well, you COULD, but very few companies port now due to Apple refusing to update their OpenGL drivers in favor of Metal. Nowadays it’s a bit better, with MoltenVK providing Vulkan support, but you’re still mostly limited to Apple Arcade games and emulators for your gaming needs

      Yeah. There was a whale event in TF2 back when it was ported where you got Apple earbuds ingame if you played the Mac port during a certain timeframe.

      Steam on my Mac is merely an updater for Krita.

      1. No

      2. You will be unable to read bullet #1 without using Apple’s undocumented, unversioned mystery Apple Silicon translator that “Just works” *

      * it does not, in fact, “just work”
