I actually have the Mac Mini developer transition kit prototype from Apple 
which doesn't use M1 but some of their previous ARM chips used on iPad. And I 
tested Geany something like 9 month ago so it is an old news it works :-).

I also tried compiling the whole app bundle natively for ARM but some of the 
dependencies in gtk-osx failed to build but I expect it will change once the 
upstream projects get updated. I don't expect that it will ever be possible to 
make an universal build (using fat binaries with both ARM and x86 code) because 
every single dependency would have to be updated to support that and I don't 
think it's realistic. But for the time being it's just fine to use the x86 
version (the reported slow-down compared to native code is around 30% which is 
no problem for an editor).
