Why are Apple Silicon VMs so different?
There's mature VirtIO drivers for just about everything already, under the virtio-win umbrella: https://github.com/virtio-win/kvm-guest-drivers-windows
My desktop PC is using libvirt+qemu (on an Arch host. I use Arch, btw) to PCI passthru my RTX 4090 GPU to a Windows guest. I installed the guest initially with emulated SATA for the main drive. Once Windows was up and running, I installed virtio-win and the guest is now using virtIO accelerated drivers for the network interface, main disk. I'm also sharing some filesystems using virtio-fs.

VirGL
Note also: it just got an experimental Windows driver!

Windows guest in KVM on Fedora filesystem passthrough
I managed to make it work by following the tips here and here, just install the necessary as indicated in the first link and then read the second one to edit the Virtual Machine XML and correctly add the device. Just one more thing, due to a bug in the Windows driver, it is necessary also to add queue="1024" in the "driver" line, so it will looks like this (read the instructions in the second link to know which line to edit):
Your welcome. I hope that over the time this process will become simpler, and also that it will become the standard for both Linux and Windows guests. While it doesn't happen, whenever possible update the driver to new versions and if possible report any issues in the GitHub repository. Good luck!
- Windows VirtIO driver documentation on fedoraproject.org is now 404, but why?

WireGuardNT, a high-performance WireGuard implementation for the Windows kernel
To be honest WireGuard over Shadowsocks is neither common nor recommended, coz essentially it's TCP-over-TCP which will wreak havoc on TCP congestion control.
Unless you mean WireGuard over Shadowsocks UDP transport, but that is even less common.
(Disclaimer: I wrote the official Go port of Shadowsocks https://github.com/shadowsocks/go-shadowsocks2)
