My experience with Ruby on Apple Silicon as been far from seamless. The only way I could thoroughly get rid of problems was by running the most recent Ruby release and dealing with what THAT causes.

I’m pretty sure GH actions don’t run the latest Ruby version.

My experience with both Ruby and Python Apple Silicon has been hit or miss. Mise has made it a lot simpler and seamless but if you need an older version or the absolute latest when it is released, you might have some issues. Mise has helped a lot, I generally do not expect to get an error.

Are there specific problems? I’ve been primarily Ruby at work the last 6 or so years (before, also doing Ruby, but also lots of Java, Kotlin, Swift, FE stuff, and some Python)… exactly that period… and haven’t really noticed any issues. Granted, I don’t typically use a lot of obscure binary-only dependencies, or things whose C/C++/machine code wouldn’t mostly cross-compile fine.

Granted, all this time I’ve always only used rbenv-managed Ruby versions (and rvm before that). I’ve long disliked/avoided Python because its ecosystem lacked any equivalent, but I know “uv” has gained popularity there, and perhaps Mise is good in Python land as well.

Usually just errors building it. Mostly python but I think I had an error with 3.4.3 the other day.
