Installing on M1 /Macbook Air/ Monterey

I've just subscribed to CC

From this list I understood that Indesign and Photoshop should run natively on M1 macs

When I try to install Indesign I am prompted to install Rosetta. Is there something else I need to be aware of?

The new apps run natively on M1 but some plugins and installers may require Rosetta.

Apple describes Rosetta 2 as a transition emulator:

Does that mean that even though Indesign is on the compatible list it needs Rosetta to install it?

Once installed it's compatible? Or it will still need to run through Rosetta?

It means exactly what it says. Installers and plugins are not apps.

The following apps run natively on Apple M1 computers.
