BIMCloud Basic - Thanks Graphisoft! (I guess . . . )

I understand Graphisoft's decision from a "business" standpoint, but today's email that they'll no longer support BIMcloud Basic (i.e. "on premises BIMcloud") on MacOS is one more layer of disappointment for small practitioners using the software. This is partially "not their fault" (i.e. it's forced b/c Apple is no longer continuing Rosetta2 on MacOS past 27 Golden Gate), but I have to imagine that not every small/mid sized office wants their Teamwork projects on the cloud, esp if they already have some sort of IT staff/architectural staff trained in IT. Since the software is currently pretty great, it would have been nice to update it to run native on Apple Silicon, and since it hasn't changed much in years (decades?) it didn't seem like "too much to ask". You'd think with everyone screaming about how AI is going to kill everyone, it would be a pretty easy way to keep the latest "Killer Claude" agent busy for a few seconds, so it has to stop working on Skynet for just a little while.

I guess I should just be thankful that Graphisoft hasn't killed BimCloud Basic altogether, and just set up my Windows server, eat my gruel, and not complain 🫤
