Thought I'd check what had happened since Christmas, and started up factorio.
Updated the version from, 15.37 i think? to 15.40, whereupon the program crashed.
Ran it again. Crashed.
Uninstalled/reinstalled. Crashed.
Installed Steam version. Crashed.
Installed experimental version (16.19). Crashed.
Edited mod-list.json file to turn off everything except base. Still crashed.
Good luck!
Mac error report says, among other things:
