@baldur Yes, but:

We don’t plan to support installing or running x86 VMs on Macs with Apple silicon

Without x86, VMware is no longer useful to me. All other use cases are covered by Docker, at this point.

@fgtech This is true. I was just happy to see that virtualisation seems to be very doable on the M1. Some naysayers had expressed their doubts about that when it launched.

@baldur Oh, I had missed those naysayers I guess. All nonsense, really. In 2021 nobody is getting anywhere without virtualization.

I suppose the real question is what will Apple “allow” to run on their hardware. A question which should not even be an issue, but here we are.

@fgtech @baldur Admittedly, I’d love to see virtualization run on the new iPad Pro while it barely breaks a sweat more than likely.
