Mac mini m1 unable to check the updates
Hi,
Anyone experienced "Unable to check for updates, make sure you are connected to the internet" on mac m1? I am currently at 11.1 version of Big Sur

Found a solution. Based on a Sun Kudsen's youtube video I did a patch, where it should fix sending the information to Apple for every app I open on MAC. the patch is to insert "echo "127.0.0.1 ocsp.apple.com" | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts" to loop the connection to localhost, but not to apple services, but apparently it blocks the connection for updates too.... After removing the line from /etc/hosts file updates started to work
Hope it will be helpful for someone who researches privacy options :)
