1 suggestionFileZilla has shipped a native Apple Silicon build since the early 2020s and the vendor's official download page for macOS now defaults to serving the native arm64 version. To get the native build, visit the FileZilla project website and download the macOS (Apple Silicon) installer — the standard download page automatically detects your Mac's architecture and serves the correct Universal Binary. If you are running an older Intel-only build under Rosetta, updating to the latest native version will improve performance and battery life. The native build is the default distribution from the vendor, so simply downloading and installing the latest release will get you the native version.
