Asahi Linux
Your best bet is to use an Apple computer that is supported by Asahi Linux, e.g. the M1 Mac Mini. Asahi Linux is based on Arch Linux ARM.
QEMU on x86_64
An alternative is to use QEMU on a fast x86_64 CPU with many cores. E.g.

You might want to make the new user a sudoer. zypper in emacs-nox mc # In another terminal. ssh -p 2222 username@localhost # Do most of the things in the SSH client.
