Any mac users using VMs with M* chips?

About a year ago, I had a go with Parallels and VM Ware fusion to run a VM on an M1 pro mac. I wanted to run a Sonoma VM in it. I had issues with browsers not rendering properly in the VM and so gave up - it was an Apple Silicon problem apprently.
Is anyone successfully running Mac OS X VMs on an M* mac? If so, what are you using?

I’ve been occasionally running Linux VMs using UTM, though without desktop environments. If it’s a year since you tried I’d say it’s worth seeing what’s been fixed in the meantime.

Thanks @zomg UTM has been mentioned a few times. I should take a look.

Not had need to do it personally but according to the Parallels website it works fine, with a couple of potentially minor caveats.
