There will be bugs and quirks that need ironing out, though it should offer better performance than the Rosetta 2 version. Although the updated version includes native support for M1-based Macs, it is still a beta version. However, this isn't the finished product. The updated version means M1-based Macs will no longer have to rely on the Rosetta 2 emulation version of the browser and brings another Chromium-based browser to Apple's highly rated chip. In this case, Microsoft is updating all three development branches with native macOS M1 silicon support, meaning you don't have to switch to a new channel.
