i'm using Linux just fine on an ARM desktop for a long time, via Apple Silicon hypervisor enabled via the UTM macos app (which wraps both Qemu, which i don't use, and Apple Silicon hypervisor, which i do use, configurable when instantiating a new image from an iso).

i mention this because perhaps you'd like it too. in my case fedora 43 works just fine, and fast.

Ooh, thank you for this, I might try it on my m4 mac. Any tips or anything I should be aware of?

what's the battery life like?

do you use macos at all, or do you do ~everything within a full-screened fedora instance?

How does Fedora handle the graphics and audio when running under hypervisor? Or is it strictly a command-line thing?
