Razer Synapse not working on MacOS Big Sur

I am an Orbweaver Chroma and Naga Trinity user. Been using them both on my imac for about 2 years. Updated to MacOS Big Sur 3 days ago and have not been able to use Razer Synapse since. Just says it can't detect any devices. I have scoured the internet for a solution to the problem. I tried avaddon's solution and I can't get the Allow button to show up. In fact, if I navigate to the location of the RazerHid.kext file, it is grayed out, so, I can't select it. I've even looked into rolling back to MacOS Catalina, but, each time I try to download MacOS Catalina, Big Sur says it is an old OS and not allowed by the current system.

I'm pretty much at a standstill. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

Please, can someone help?

Sounds like there isn't a Big Sur-friendly version of Synapse. I hope the team at Razer corrects this soon.
from official support... "Project Synapse for macOS has been dropped, and it will only support until 10.14."

Sad to hear honestly...
