Should we move the civo binary to /Applications? @DMajrekar

[RealHarshThakur]

Which version of Mac OS was it? It seems like they've started adding it in all the latest versions since couple years ago

[alessandroargentieri]

any update on this issue?

[martynbristow]

Sorry, works on my machine (intel Mac) ...
Is this an M1 MacBook Air ... ?
