Is Redis cache compatible with Local?

Cloudways started using Redis by default. Now when I import a site into Local I get this PHP fatal error:

Object Cache Pro requires the PHP extension (3.1.1 or newer) to communicate with Redis.

The only way to get rid of the error is to go into MU Plugins and delete everything. I did some research and found this advise but I don’t understand it nor know if it would even work with Local.

Advice START

Object Cache Pro requires the PHP extension PhpRedis (3.1.1 or newer) to communicate with Redis.

If PhpRedis was installed in the environment (CLI, FPM, etc.), but you’re seeing the PhpRedisMissingException exception, be sure to load the extension in your php.ini and to restart your PHP and web server processes.

Advice END

I’m on MacOS Catalina (I can’t update due to using an old iMac)
Local is latest version.

Thanks
