Parallels is good for running Windows. It’s heavily optimized for Windows. I have both Fedora & Windows on my MacBook Pro through Parallels.
But it’s nowhere nead native speed and you’re still using an ARM version of Win / Linux which comes with its own set of issues.
Having said that, Parallels is good for when you need to run a specific Windows program. I haven’t run into anything that runs on Linux that I can’t set up on MacOS so I haven’t really needed the Fedora.
On my desktop I use Fedora and it’s my favorite OS / Linux distro. But MacOS works. The M2 is worth it
