I am considering working on a Macbook air with virtual machines for my learning and experimentation process. Is it reasonable or would it be better to consider native development, especially while working remotely? I plan to use the macbook as a remote development environment with tools to work on code inside virtual machines and remotely (ssh) to a desktop with Ubuntu 24. It has been cumbersome getting the kernel to build due to configurations in Ubuntu for certificates which do not exist in the mainline kernel so any suggestions on any other host OS are appreciated. I have no issues switching between distributions and consider it a great part of the development learning process.
