So, i just got my Macbook Air M1 16GB a few days ago. What's the best way to run Linux on it in a VM? Is it Docker?


Depends on what out of box experience you want and if you want a GUI. For an easy out of box experience, open source, GUI based tool I suggest checking out https://github.com/utmapp/UTM. There's also an app store version that supports the author I believe.


Interesting. Can UTM run Windows also? I have a few critical domain-specific commercial apps that are Windows only, and need that in a VM...


Haven't tried it, but think so:

OK. I need to look into this. Thanks for the heads-up!
