M1 Native Binary is Long Overdue

Every other electron based app I use has an M1 native binary (eg. Slack, VS Code (they have an insider edition that is M1 native)). electron has supported M1 natively since version 11.0.0. They just released 13.1.0.

Discord is still using 9.x.x.

It's been a year since the development packages were available for M1/ARM. It's been over six months since the machines have been publicly available. Yes, it works under Rosetta 2.

However, it won't be long before there won't be a single x86 based Mac coming out of Cupertino and the world-wide ratio of M1 to x86 Macs in the wild will grow dramatically. At some point, this delay in offering an M1 native binary, when so many other major app developers have already done so, should be seen was embarrassing.
