I looked through the open and close issues, and could not find one related to support for Qt6. Currently, Spyder does not support Qt6 bindings, PyQt6 and PySide6: https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/blob/e5334d1c1e0b566147739b766d95127d145d0e3d/spyder/requirements.py#L37

Do you plan on adding support/changing the default to a Qt6 binding, and on which timeline?

Ok, I see. The problem is we have limited resources and supporting a new Qt version usually takes a single, full time developer two or three months to do it.

One advantage of moving to Qt6 is to have native Spyder on M1. Right now Spyder only runs in emulation (Rosetta 2) mode. Actually, it works only with the prebuilt Spyder, Spyder cannot be installed with pip, it fails at the installation of PyQt5, which is obviously not available natively for the M1 site they do not develop this version anymore. On the other hand PqQt6 or PySide6 is available for the M1, we just need Spyder to use one of them.
