> Just installing it is now a walk through a minefield of errors - is your mac an M1? There are dozens of different recipes to follow for a maddening mix of how to install different versions of ruby, of cocoapods, with homebrew or not, with the arm terminal or rosetta emulator.

honestly, to me it sounds like you have moved over an old environment from years of upgrades, instead of starting fresh on an M1. You're just in edge case hell, and there's no way out if you weren't using segregated environments.

trust me when I'd say it would be faster to start over. when you need your special configurations or PATH variables, you'll find them that one time you need them.
