I’m a macbro who’s been using the terminal for eight years. I downloaded an Archlinux VM for UTM (macOS Tahoe) and I like it, I just wish the text was bigger. I know you don’t get Arch because of its snazzy UI, you do it so you can do…Idk, cool 1337 h4x0r shit? I seriously don’t know, you guys, I’ve only been an Arch user for like three days.

    More likely than not you’re confusing modifier keys.

    On the Mac, the zoom is [Command] + [+].

    In Linux it’s [Control] + [+]

    This is pretty much true across the board. It’s sometimes non-obvious because wrappers like UTM try to “help”.

    The alternative is to ssh into the VM and continue to use the MacOS shortcuts you’re used to.

    Source: I’ve been using Linux on MacOS guests for a very long time.
