I am trying to download macOS High Sierra....

...to create a bootable disk to update my old MacBook Air 2013 from the Mountain Lion it pulled in recovery mode. My next step then will be to upgrade again to Big Sur.

When I follow the link provided to download High Sierra from the App Store, I get an error message saying that that program isn't compatible with my Mini Mac 2020 M1 and therefore can't be downloaded.


OK, so how do I get a bootable disk of High Sierra now?

Mac mini, macOS 12.1
