> Desktop Parametric CAD isn't coming to Mac anytime soon.

I had no problems with Fusion360 running under Rosetta 2 and Autodesk recently released an Apple Silicon version of Fusion360.

Sorry, I was thinking more along the lines of SolidWorks and Alibre which aren't so web-based.
I use soldiworks on an M1 Pro 14" macbook pro under parallels and it's fine for professional work (including ~2000 part assemblies). Not fast but on par with my 2019 13" macbook pro and I've never been unable to do anything that I can do on my desktop.
Switch to Fusion or Rhino/Grasshopper.
