Support for older OS (Mac)

Hi… I’ve been using Logseq for a while now as a replacement for many many solutions beforehand. Thank you all for putting this out there and continually improving it. However, I’m just wondering about backwards compatibility.

I still use macOS 10.14.6 Mojave for a variety of reasons on my workstation computer, a nicely tweaked super hackintosh machine (I mainly use Logseq on an Android phone and a M1 MacBook Pro). Today I clicked on ‘restart to update’ in Logseq only to discover the newest version 10.3 no longer works. After trial and error I found that 10.1 is the last version to work on this OS. So I downgraded on this machine.

The problem is Logseq is automatically re-downloading the new version in the background so I get the dialogue on top prompting me to restart. Of course now I have a broken installation which ignores the version that I want and installs a version that won’t work on this machine.

How can I fix this? Will an earlier version stop the auto update? Is there a hack I can use to lock down 10.1?

(I realise of course that, e.g. Chrome is no longer compatible with this OS and I will be forever plagued with prompts to upgrade; but this machine is staying in the Mojave desert for as long as it can and having Logseq running on it makes things easier in this regard!)

Bump to this topic, because breaking support for MacOS is not well documented along with releases.

Latest release 0.10.15 breaks support for MacOS 11 Big Sur on Intel.
0.10.14 is the last compatible version for MacOS 11.

This may be due to the Electron update in 0.10.15
