Is it possible to copy Skitch from old Macbook Air (M2) to new Macbook Pro (M4) without using Time Machine?


So I am a die-hard Skitch fan (the original screenshot program…not whatever the hell it morphed into). Been using it since 2011? I have “carried it over” from Macbook to Macbook over the past decade and some change.

I want to know if there’s a way to copy Skitch and associated files on my current Macbook Air M2 onto a USB-C drive and then install it on the new Macbook Pro M4 I am getting.

Yes, I know I can do Time Machine, however, I have used this M2 Air as a test bed for countless Docker/etc programs from Github. I prefer to start off with a clean slate on the M4 Macbook Pro. So, I do not think I can simply back up that program and not the system settings (I have installed a ton of stuff from Github that I’m not 100% on from several perspectives including security).

And I do not have the original .DMG file.

And I know I’m on Apple Silicon and I first downloaded Skitch on the Intel Macbook Pro I had back in the day. So, there’s potentially that issue as well. Skitch works perfectly fine on my M2 Macbook Air. However, unsure if I can save it to a USB and then “install” it on the M4 Macbook Pro.

And yes, I have tested other screenshot programs. And “meh.”
