Good news: A native Universal Binary version of Raspberry Pi Imager (v1.9.6) has been confirmed running on real Apple Silicon Macs. You should update to the latest version from the official Raspberry Pi download page to get full native Apple Silicon support and drop Rosetta 2 dependency entirely. The app is actively maintained by the Raspberry Pi Foundation, so future updates will continue to support Apple Silicon natively.
