So, this is a kick in the teeth–I left DT for Eagle Filer, and TIL that it will no longer operate under MacOS28. forehead desk
I do not expect a full schedule–but please let us all know if plans are that Eagle Filer will still be around??

When launching EagleFiler on macOS 26.4 or later, macOS may show a “Support Ending for Intel-based Apps” notification. Apple announced to developers in June 2025 that it will continue to support Rosetta 2 until macOS 28 in fall 2027. There’s been no change of plans here; they are just telling users now. We’ve been working on a rewrite of EagleFiler to be fully native on Apple Silicon and expect to finish it long before then.

HOORAY!!! Thank you, and I suspected you already had it all under control. I promise I will not ask again, nor will I jump off the roof or any other self-harming!

Since I am a beta tester I wonder what you mean by “expect to finish it long before then”. Since there isn’t even a beta out yet.
I know you are the only developer so I understand but takes time. But the fact that Apple will drop Rosetta 2 has been known for long.
macOS 28 is something like 17 months away from shipping right now. What I was thinking when I wrote that was not to have it go down to the wire, so to have the release version of EagleFiler out before macOS 28 goes into beta. And so the beta of EagleFiler a month or two before then (private beta, then public beta). It may well be sooner than that, but I don’t want to overpromise because there are always unexpected issues in software development, and Apple may make a change in macOS 27 that breaks one of my other apps, taking development time away for a while.
