Our take

Choose it for learning, development or running a separate guest OS.

A graphical interface to QEMU and Apple virtualization reduces the need to configure every option on the command line.

Keep in mind: Matching-architecture virtualization and cross-architecture emulation have different performance. GPU acceleration is experimental, and shared folders or networking are not an absolute malware boundary.
