KVM is more powerful than VirtualBox, in that it can allow direct
access to PCI hardware such as GPUs (e.g. for gaming). This isn't for
the faint of heart but it can be done, whereas in VB it can't.

It works fine with Wayland.

The downside is that IMO the documentation is less organised and user-
friendly than VBs, and in some use cases you need to be familiar with
QEMU. However setting up a basic VM using Virtual Machine Manager is
fairly straightforward.
