Finally get RLSS to run natively on M1 Mac, it’s beautiful to play at bigger screen.
Install PlayCover, choose 1.0.1, do NOT use the latest version, it doesn't work with RLSS. https://github.com/iVoider/PlayCover/releases

Being able to run the iOS apps on ARM based macOS is a godsend.
There's a utility called PlayCover in development that aims to work around this, but not all iOS app work for some reason, hopefully that keeps improving.

Hi, friends 💕. Please could you guys sign and share with your friends to increase the chances of Genshin coming to Mac? https://chng.it/WNJPx8RpVX
If your friends have M1 macs they can try playing through PlayCover. This will sideload IOS version and allow to map keyboard/mouse to touch controls (all though I recommend using ps4 controller).

ELI5: Why do computers get so enragingly slow after just a few years?
iMacs are sensitive and unusable if the room/environment temperature goes up 1-2 degrees. Once an iMac reaches temperatures that exceed its cooling capabilities, it will reduce the Scheduler Limit. This OS protection slows your computer down to a % of its actual performance. It's designed to reduce load down to a level that the computer can cope with, given its temperature situation. A tool called Hot will reveal the current scheduler limit, and you'll be able to verify this is the problem.
