I downloaded the compact file and opened it, but don't know how to install it from there.

I'd recommend brew install ldc. I assume you're on a modern ARM mac. LDC will generate AArch64 code, DMD will only generate x86_64 that runs in rosetta.

You can install ldc without homebrew, but I use brew for a lot of stuff and it's pretty convenient.
