I use altium professionaly, and kicad for personal projects. it it more than capable for what I need (think simple 4layer boards) and overall kicad 7 has been a great experience on apple silicon. I have not attempted high layer count or high speed design (ddr4 ram etc.). so I cannot speak to how it performs here. but I plan to continue using it for personal projects. if I where to do a startup I would also probably use kicad.
