This branch addresses an issue that has been observed on the M1 MacBook.
When trying to display a Matplotlib figure without switching the backend to 'TkAgg', the program stops with Segmentation Fault: 11.

⚠️ This is a very platform specific problem and the fix that this branch introduces has a lot of duplicate code. Maybe this it should not be merged, but left as a resource to users who encounter this bug. The underlying issue should be fixed in the library at some point in the future. 👉 Draft only
