What are the current best methods for virtualizing MacOS on Linux?
I've heard a lot of buzz for MacOS-Simple-KVM but I see there hasb't been an update in 3 years.

MAC vs. PC : + Does any M1 or M2 MacBook Air / Pro support nested virtualisation?
You could always get a regular PC laptop, install linux on it and run your macos/windows vms via https://github.com/foxlet/macOS-Simple-KVM qemu kvm, supports full hardware acceleration and should be able to do nested vms just fine, i run a macos vm on my desktop for work and a hardware accelerated windows vm for gaming
- I am at my wit's end (Installation)

Beginner Questions about QEMU
Then, i came across this tool https://github.com/foxlet/macOS-Simple-KVM. However, it seems like it's asking me to install a different package for QEMU. sudo apt-get install qemu-system qemu-utils python3 python3-pip. Thankfully, I was able to create a Mac VM with this tool.
- Anyone have this problem before?

MacOS KVM GPU Passthrough Hangs
I did the Windows passthrough with some problems but I got it to work and then I attempted MacOS for fun and it went down hill from there. Following this guide https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM I installed it no problem without passthrough then realised my 3060ti wouldn't work so I installed an old RX580 laying around and decided to passthrough that, when I did it hung, tried blacklisting the AMD drivers on host, amongst other things and I couldn't get it to work. I then switched to this guide using clover https://github.com/foxlet/macOS-Simple-KVM as I heard that might work and nope it hung again.

Simulate an Ubuntu-like VM inside macOS
Multipass is pretty clutch for trivial VMs on MacOs for sure. I use it for a bunch of ssh jump boxes running vpns to different sites. The macOS build does not support custom images (lest not without [some truly insane hacks](https://github.com/canonical/multipass/issues/1260#issuecomm...) , which doesn’t really matter for what I use it for but it is kind of a bummer. If you need something with a little more grunt but don’t want to go full blown with writing your own QEMU tooling or fussing with something like UTM or Parallels, [quickemu](https://github.com/quickemu-project/quickemu) is a really nice qemu wrapper with sane defaults that can expose a whole lot of power if you need it.

Thinking of purchasing a 4080 laptop and replacing W11 with KDE plasma
Overall, don't be afraid to switch distro (use Ventoy, load a few ISOs just in case), try to make sure you have an easy way of backing up your stuff (be it with a separate /home partition, or like I do with storing everything important in a separate drive and then using symlink to make it 'appear' in their 'default' places), and you can always use VM in a pinch (consult this guide or use quickemu or gnome-boxes)

Wanting to ditch windows 10 in favor of linux
In case some things you do absolutely needs Windows, keep this guide for setting up VM in mind, or use quickemu's GUI.

DistroSea- Test drive Linux distros online
VM will be shutdown automatically when it's inactive for a while. I will eventually add more distros going forward. Most distro isos are downloaded using the quickget script from the wonderful quickemu project. You may directly contribute to the upstream project to get the distro added to DistroSea.
