M1 are not Linux-friendly at all.

I can run a Linux vm emulating x64 or aarch64 right now on M1…

Not to mention zsh is the login shell out of the box…

It’s more flexible that WSL2 in my opinion

See https://github.com/lima-vm/lima for a very friendly QEMU wrapper running on M1

Run it in a VM. Works fine.

This is like responding "well you can make the civic look like a sports car, that should cover you!" when someone says "I want to drive fast".

There's some concerns about paravirtualized GPU performance, but the equivalent of "sports car" (workstation/server-like workloads) runs in VMs in cloud providers all the time.
