Hey, apologies, while the issue was resolved promptly, the details about ARM support weren’t clear on our end. To clarify, we introduced ARM Mac-only support starting with Meteor 2.5.6, and Linux ARM support arrived in Meteor 3.x. So you are completely on the point on asking for its support.

We’ve faced challenges building Meteor 2 for ARM since our internal pipelines no longer supported it after the shift to Meteor 3. This week, I’ll attempt to handle this manually and will update you here and in the other thread.

In the meantime, have you tried using Rosetta? I’m running an M1, and a Meteor 2.16.1-beta.0 app works perfectly for me, even though it’s running in emulation.
