Hey, did the GX ver. of the browser receive the M1 support together with the main opera browser or it is planned for the future ?

@micro18 It's there now, as seen in the file listing here (the fact there are versions that say "arm64"), no idea when it first showed up.

@sgunhouse So when installig with the official installer this should be the version that is installed or should I do this manually with the file from that ftp ?

Edit...

Just checked under "about opera gx" and the installer indeed provides the correct version of the browser. Thank you for your assistance.

@micro18 Not having a Mac I can't personally say that it does, but if you download a "network installer" (a version with no specific architecture in the file name) it should download the right version for your system. If you download an offline installer the filename should specify which CPU architecture it supports ARM or Intel/AMD.
