AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find recent information about DesktopAquarium3D, including whether it has a native Apple Silicon build or is still actively maintained. Based on the bundle ID com.uselesscreations.aquarium, this appears to be an older or niche project. If you rely on this app, contact the developer directly through their website or bundle ID metadata to ask whether a native Apple Silicon version is planned. This matters because Apple is removing Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028) — an Intel-only build will stop launching on that release. If the developer is no longer active, consider free alternatives like Aqua, Puffer Fish, or Marine Aquarium that are more actively maintained and may offer native Apple Silicon versions. Alternatively, macOS itself includes a built-in Aquarium screensaver option in System Settings → Screensaver that requires no third-party app.
