I am trying to install Anaconda, for new macbook, but I am unable to. It says the laptop is not compatible. Is there any other way to install or work with it? ![Screenshot 2023-06-29 at 10.27.38 PM](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/anaconda/original/2X/c/c53cddf58d62f62e98683acc32b3d5ca79ae5f24.jpeg) ---
