I tried with a fresh start an downloaded the 2.0 Installer (tar.bz2) and installed Java (Build 1.8.0_381-b09)
After runnning the forge.command, a terminal windows opens and i get the message:

*---------------
Unrecognized option: --add-opens
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

Saving session...

Aaaaaaand thats it with forge on OSX. I love it on my Android Pixel smartphone but running it on my macbook seems impossible. Iam running a Macbook Pro 13 in 2016 (12.7.6 (21H1320)).

What do i need to run forge on osx? 🥺
