.NET installation failure on Mac

[erikj540]

I am on a Mac with M3 processors and trying to install MetaMorpheus.
I wasn't able to do it via conda which this issue tracks.
I tried to install via .NET and am getting this error which ChatGPT could not fix 😄 .

$ dotnet CMD.dll -h
Unhandled exception. System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'CMD, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.
[1]    18276 abort      dotnet CMD.dll -h

I get the same error when I try to run the specific commands in the instructions here.

My dotnet version is 8.0.401.

Thanks for your help!
