Not sure if this late.. I am running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS desktop over UTM installed on 2021 M1 Macbook Pro. There will be a couple of minor hiccups here and there. But it works like a charm (Even tried Windows 11). You cannot map camera or even some USB devices though. Other than that, it is a pleasant experience with UTM in the absence of any other alternatives like Virtualbox!
