Our Intel Mac is currently on Monterey, however we're not able to offer
remote access to it as it is firewalled by the hoster and only accessible
to a limited number of hosts.
Sysadmins access the system by connecting via one of our servers, but it is
sensitive and we can't grant shell access to that machine to others.

With regards to the Apple M1 Mac, i'm not sure we're able to build things
with Craft on that architecture at the moment.
