Since when does running Linux in a VM make a machine a Linux machine? This same charade is being done by Microsoft with WSL2. In both cases it serves to usurp future Linux-on-metal users by giving them a convenient virtualized Linux environment, and we all suffer as a result while Linux's hardware support rots away. It will only be a matter of time before nobody can run Linux directly on consumer machines, and there will always be a proprietary hypervisor in control and your privacy and security compromised. Resist this and insist continuing to run Linux on bare metal, retain control over your general purpose computing.
