The OpenGL version required by Blender is higher than the OpenGL version supported by macOS. As such when you open Blender with the OpenGL backend, it detects that Blender isn't supported then closes. I can reproduce this issue on my M1 Pro Mac.

@fclem It seems some versioning code needs to be put in to automatically change the render backend to Metal for all macOS users.

#110185 has landed and contains code to fix that. If blender doesn't open after that it is because your hardware is unsupported.

@Kent-Davis Blender 4.0 is currently in the alpha stage of development. It is likely to have issues. If you are experiencing issues, then it is recommended that you make a bug report for it so the developers can fix the bug.

If you do not want to deal with the issues that come from using in-development software, then it is recommended that you stay on the stable versions of Blender. The latest stable version is 3.6.1

@Kent-Davis , Thanks for verifying .
Actually Alaska uses Mac system. And also requested the changes in versioning code to prevent the crash when OpenGL backend is enabled: #110185 (comment)
So thanks to him :)
