Irssi on Apple ARM does not properly render to screen.

The issue is that Apple on ARM puts variadic arguments in function calls in a different place than everyone else.

In the mean time, you can find a patch to try in #1238 (comment)

Unfortunately, we cannot unconditionally patch Irssi like this because it might break rendering on other platforms.

original bug report follows

  1. I've installed Irssi on Arm Mac using Homebrew
  2. When I launch Irssi and start typing the text starts on the far right side and then continues on a new line
  3. I'm unable to see what I'm typing due to this bug
  4. Various other issues with scrolling
