Yes, macOS Catalina (10.15) is the minimum Version for Rancher Desktop on macOS. Big Sur is version 11, so is supported by Rancher Desktop as well.

We may stop supporting Catalina pretty soon, given that the OS is no longer supported by Apple, and GitHub Actions no longer provide runners for us to perform CI on it.

Note that Big Sur is also no longer supported by Apple (and GitHub), so we may need to drop support for it as well if we run into build problems for it.

But for now macOS 10.15 is still supported for Intel and macOS 11 for Apple M1+ chips (there never was ARM support in Catalina).
