Multiplicity 4 for Mac?

from Stardock Forums

Basically, what the title says. Is there any chance that Multiplicity 4 will come to Mac? I've recently gotten a Macbook Pro for work and it would be nice to add it to Multiplicity.

I know this question had previously been asked about Multiplicity 3, but with the new Apple Silicon Macs proliferating, I thought I would ask if this might be on the radar?

I'm a very happy user of Multiplicity 3 KVM Pro with my multiple Windows machines (with VMs running Linux). But I'm moving over to a more diverse setup of machines running MacOS, Windows, and Linux (on bare metal). This is what's happening in a LOT of small and big (Enterprise) businesses around the world. IT needs to support such setups. And while we could run multiple keyboards/mouses, that can be quite expensive (high end stuff), not to mention taking up a ton of space and it being an ergonomic nightmare. This is why we bought Multiplicity in the first place.

I had hoped a new version of Multiplicity would be the perfect time to introduce MacOS and Linux support, but it's not there. So I'm forced to look at competitors that do offer that solution, even though I'm perfectly happy with how well Multiplicity works on Windows (10). If it did have proper MacOS and Linux support I wouldn't be looking at a competitor, but would instead be looking at upgrading to Multiplicity 4.

I completely agree with you on this.

Out of curiosity, what alternatives have you found? I've been trying out Parsec to connect to the Mac, and while it is serving as a replacement for now, it's not nearly as nice as Multiplicity.
