Is it 'supported' ? depends what you mean by support. You can get a support
contract for your use of LibreOffice on Mac from the ecosystem, and then you
can ask for support. One of the serious problems we have is that almost no-one
bothers to purchase such support - and, as such, it is incredibly hard to fund
fixing things like this.
<span class="quote">> Some people and companies rely on it. It has to be made clear and sound.</span >
If you are relying on something that you're not contributing to either directly
yourself, or via paid support - you clearly have a problem.

Well, there is a significant improvement in <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - Severe performance degradation on a macOS with 10-bit displays"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=137468">bug#137468</a> which is linked, that's
good - and will ship in a subsequent update I guess. Otherwise, in general
fixing an arbitrary problem in LibreOffice costs from $10^3 to $10^5 with a
median around $5k. Normally way beyond what any one individual can afford -
which is why getting the economics of this thought through carefully is so
important.
Anyhow - mercifully - due to Apple app-store sales Collabora can fix some
issues as they arise, but we've been focusing on native M1 support for a while.
HTH.</pre>
