M1 Screen sharing still broken?
It's now late May 2021 and Apple distributed the Big Sur 11.4 update yesterday. I was hoping that this update addressed the Screen Sharing problem with the M1 Macs. We have a new M1 iMac and you still cannot initiate a screen sharing session TO this iMac if the Firewall is on ( file and screen sharing allowed ) in the System Preferences panel. If you turn off Firewall on the M1 iMac, you can initiate a screen sharing session TO it. You can turn on the Firewall on the M1 while the screen sharing session is active, but if you end the session and try to re-initiate another screen sharing session TO the M1 iMac, it will fail to connect.
This can only be a bug I feel pretty sure.
