On #macOS least tedious way to run ALSO full #VM's IHMO (I don't care about #Docker): https://orbstack.dev/

#Apple sucks deeply providing #developer experience but this seems make things somewhat usable. Invention in #orbStack is that VM's use bind mounts (i.e. a bit like #WSL2).

In addition it has great preset gallery, got my Fedora up and running within 3 minutes.

It is marketed as better Docker but the gist for me is that this implements same as WSL2 for macOS!

Why run Linux on macOS? Learning peculiarities of ARM64, testing kernel and for does brain good to try out different things :-) I've learned a lot about syscalls by comparing behavior of Linux and macOS command-line tools.
