Did anyone have any success with hosting the docker container in AWS EC2? As it turns out only metal instances offer nested virtualization according to a old blog post from 2018. I personally tried c5.xlarge and t3.medium instances in eu-west-1 using Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS (HVM) official image with no luck:

INFO: Your CPU does not support KVM extensions
KVM acceleration can NOT be used

I believe he answered this here - https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/issues/68#issuecomment-672076461

I don't believe anything has changed.
