Synergy on arm processors


I would love to have Synergy/DE working on my Macbook Air with a M4 arm processor within a VirtualBox in a Linux environment. This lightweight laptop is easy to transport when I'm traveling abroad and want to be able to give support to my customers or when I'm on the road to a potential customer.

Agree: vote it up people! But this is much bigger than Apple M* processors; many (most?) Windows laptops sold now have ARM CPUs.

Arm is a MUST moving forward.

Any updates on this?  I'm unable to use my new MSI Laptop for dev since it is Arm :(

Synergy DBL does not currently provide native ARM support. While x64 emulation on ARM can work well, we know there’s a 64-bit issue (Vcredist 64) caused by ARM and AMD64 using the same GUID. We’re going to investigate a possible workaround, but we don’t have a timeline to share yet. We’ll also keep a close eye on ARM adoption across our customer base.
