Have you considered Qubes OS, https://qubes-os.org? It is more secure than Xen, which it relies on, https://www.qubes-os.org/security/xsa/#statistics.

Have you tried VirtualBox? That’s my go-to for running un-trusted code. Start with a clean VM/fresh install, and don’t put any secrets in it.

I assume that if it's not air-gapped, it's compromised. I keep important stuff offline.

A simple qemu virtual machine is nice and quick to spin up. I mainly work inside an openbsd or linux virtual machine. I use a different vm for each project and I have a "sandbox" vm I use to run random things I download/test.
