Hello!
Here is what happened after I inputed the commands:
Hey @baconpotato,
This is really a head scratcher! It still seems like your conda environment is messed up somehow, but I'm surprised none of the above steps have resolved the issue. Let's try a couple of other things, just to make sure we're covering all of our bases. Please run the following:
conda config --env --remove subdir osx-64
Then let's confirm your config was updated by checking:
cat ~/.condarc
Then let's run:
conda clean --all
After all of this, then let's try installing wget once more:
conda install -c conda-forge wget
Let us know how this goes, and we'll keep troubleshooting as needed!
Hello!
Thank you so much for the continued effort. I wasn't sure if I should have kept going when it said "'subdir': invalid parameter" but here is what I got after inputing everything:
Hey @baconpotato,
Thanks for giving that a shot! Let's try one more thing, per a suggestion from @SoilRotifer (who also has an Apple Silicon machine).
Let's go ahead and have you delete your instance of miniconda again (I know, sorry) and re-install the Apple Silicon version of miniforge. Once you've done that, try installing wget for the umpteenth time - hopefully this one's the kicker!
Cheers

Hi @baconpotato, for the benefit of other users on the forum, how were you finally able to install? Did using minniforge work?
