Ask HN: Which desktop virtualization software for a macOS host?

I have a 2012 MacBook Pro which currently spends 90% of its time running Windows 7 via Boot Camp and only 10% running macOS. I would like to reverse this ratio, which would require running Windows (and my Windows-only software) in a virtual machine.

Which desktop virtualization software would you recommend for this - running Windows (and occasionally Linux) on a macOS host? Is VMware Fusion still worth paying for despite last year's developer lay-off? Or would you recommend a different solution?
