having regular arm64 builds would be helpful for anyone that is on a newer iOS device. I would build it myself but I sadly don't have a Mac, hackentosh, or a computer that can run a virtual machine.

If I can figure it out (no promises, as I'm horrible with git/compiling/xcode/etc), then I wouldn't mind posting such builds unofficially.
