    UTM is basically QEMU under the hood, which is well supported by Linux, so it’s no surprise that it worked without any issues.

    What would be interesting to know however, is what’s the performance is like. You should run something like Geekbench on macOS and on UTM and compare the result, to see what the overhead is like.

        Damn, that’s actually pretty impressive. Assuming you ran the x86-64 version of Fedora in UTM, and the ARM version in Parallels?
