The tor daemon for aarch64 macOS (M1 and friends) will crash when visiting some onion-service sites, resulting in an inoperable Tor Browser (you can restart Tor Browser to work around this for now, but the particular failing onion-service sites will be inaccessible). We have developed a fix for the issue (more details in the bug report) and this should be totally fixed by the next Tor Browser release, later this month.
