The specific kvm solution I have is using Fmstrat's winapps (which now has instructions for fedora and arch as well) which essentially keeps a thin Win10 VM going on the background with native-fied apps from the VM running on your desktop via freerdp (though that has issues with floating elements so I usually just use the full fat freerdp option). The only issue is that it can be a bit heavy (I recommend using thin Win10 iso like ReviOS or Win10 AME for this) and that it can only specifically read from your home path but tsclient thankfully can read link so I just linked my document folders to ~/Documents/Storage.
To sorta replace OneDrive, I've used a combination of syncthing and abraunegg's OneDrive sync. I found that the latter option has some issue syncing each devices' database and the OneDrive server's database with the jank setup I have with my work-given laptop, my still-old personal laptop I use when at work/outside, and my PC I use at home. In the end, I just have a /home/{USER}/OneDrive/ directory that I sync with syncthing between my linux devices and to the D:\\OneDrive\ on my always-on work-laptop which would sync the updates to OneDrive cloud for instant access for my co-workers and vendor partners.
I use the CODE Server which is currently broken (https://github.com/nextcloud/richdocuments/issues/1282) for all users, the best solution would be using a different server for the document server or running it in a container, I haven't had time to do this lol

For video conference, my work use Zoom, and I just use zoom-redirector since Firefox's share-screen handling is better than the official apps or the snap/flatpak's handling for wayland at the moment. That said, I do keep Brave and Edge for a Chromium option when I have to deal with one vendor's Sharepoint and whatever other jank setups the vendors have for CRM and stuff.
Yes, and if it can't, just use flatseal.
Certainly, I‘d not dream of trying to design my CV with LaTeX. Using templates is a lot of fun though, like this one which has helped me secure two jobs!
