Does this support Apple Silicon yet without patches? Can’t seem to see definite info.

  Not sure why you're downvoted. QEMU is not on https://isapplesiliconready.com/ https://isapplesiliconready.com/ either so I'd think it's a valid question?

  There's an app that wraps QEMU called UTM. It's open source but also you can pay $10 and get it on the app store. I have had a lot of trouble with machines getting corrupted, not working at all, locking up, but I did get a Debian machine working that runs ARM Linux on my Macbook Air M1. https://getutm.app/ https://getutm.app/

    +1 for UTM - The website for mac (https://mac.getutm.app/ https://mac.getutm.app/) has some recipes and pre-built image for Windows and the main Linux distros. I had okay results with emulating Windows -- nothing usable in my day to day, though.

  Should work for TCG (emulation); not yet for HVF (virtualization).

    HVF does build with Nix (with an overlay), so the build experience doesn't suck. [1] for the base, then apply [2] to SLIRP if you don't want to use HVF's network adapter (which needs root). I'm happily running FreeBSD and Linux VMs on my Mac Mini with this [1]: https://github.com/benpye/nix-config/tree/main/overlays/qemu https://github.com/benpye/nix-config/tree/main/overlays/qemu [2]: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/slirp/libslirp/-/commit/7271345efe182199acaeae602cb78a94a7c6dc9d https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/slirp/libslirp/-/commit/72713...
