Key Points

In general, binaries built just for x86 architecture will automatically be run in x86 mode
You can force apps in Rosetta 2 / x86 mode by right-clicking app, click Get Info, check "Open using Rosetta"

Don't just immediately install Homebrew as usual. It should most likely be installed in x86 mode.

	###. things to watch out for:
	### - Check out the `nix-darwin` instructions, as they have changed.
	### - There's a home manager gotcha https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/issues/4026

	# I found some good resources but they seem to do a bit too much (maybe from a time when there were more bugs).
