There have been many reported problems using Creative Cloud apps with the new M1 chip on a Mac. This is because as yet the CC apps do not run natively with the M1 but rather are using Rosetta 2 (which does not support M1) in order to run. For more information see: https://helpx.adobe.com/ie/download-install/kb/apple-silicon-m1-chip.html.

Try upgrading to InDesign 16.1 to see if that helps.

It's now after updating to 16.1 that the whole thing doesn't work at all anymore. On 16.0 my MBP kept recovering after a while. Now on 16.1 it just freezes until it restarts by itself. So everything got worse on installing 16.1.
