Aside: I use Parallels with Windows 11 and Ubuntu on my M1 MBP and I love this approach to computing where you just spin up VMs and delete them when you're done with them. It almost feels silly polluting my system macOS install with things like Homebrew and top-level applications and personal/sensitive information when I could have a VM for each project, each game, each cryptocurrency wallet, and a general one for personal entertainment. It's also the logical conclusion for Python version management. ;)
