You can do this in UTM, it's a GUI that wraps QEMU.
Has anyone seen a guide to installing OpenBSD on M1 Mac using UTM?

Our solution was to run Linux native on all dev machines. Docker really is a Linux tool and it works much better under Linux. We were running JetBrains IDEs and doing mostly Go, Python and JS development, so the switch was pretty easy and painless. The switch also dramatically reduced developer time spent solving Mac/Linux incompatibilities in tooling, and let us focus more on our product. Overall we accelerated deve…
I swear I'm not trying to be facetious, not trying to stir the same old tired "hurrr year of the linux desktop" shit... I have to ask: you accelerate development by 1 day/week, but do your devs lose any time with the accumulation of tiny annoyance such as sorting out bluetooth/audio/hibernation/battery drain?
The fact that Apple is working on virtualisation shows that there is a user demand for running alternative OSes on a Mac desktop. And yet, instead of opening up their hardware just a bit (by making available some hardware literature on their ARM SoC) to system developers, they'd rather offer a more convoluted way of running other OSes only on their terms and control. It's all about having control over your personal d…
You can also run FreeBSD: https://dan.langille.org/2018/10/02/running-freebsd-on-osx-u...
Does this have to be this complex? Can't I just fire up a VirualBox as I do on Linux and Windows and go ahead?

Maybe I'm missing something, what are the actual commands for running a Linux x64 binary on macOS ARM?

So we can finally have docker for Mac that doesn't run egregiously slow?

This is why GNU/XNU OS distros should be a thing. I think this would satisfy most that want a fully functional "Linux" on Apple Silicon, being in its entirety OSS plus the ability to gain a fully compliant UNIX specification in stride, at least in practice if not actually registered.

The only problem: becoming root doesn't mean you now control the device (you paid for).
I feel like I pretty much have full control over my Mac laptop. Why would you expect to fully control a machine from inside a VM anyway? Sounds like a massive security risk too.
UTM works great. Emulate X86, AMD64, or run on Apple Silicon. It's essentially a GUI on top of QEMU. https://mac.getutm.app/
