What’s the walled garden on macOS? You can run anything you want on the Mac.

M1 macs no longer run unsigned code. Apps now check stapled OCSP. There's now a permissions dance to do much of anything.

M1 Macs run self-signed code, though. You don't need a developer account or Apple keys.

There is no longer an official gatekeeper off switch on M1 as far as I know.
