Is there some way I could try ChromeOS on my regular PC? Inside VMware or natively.

ChromeOS, no. ChromiumOS, yes. vmware/virtualbox, unlikely without hacking. Qemu/kvm, yes in theory. Native, yes. Possible options for native: 1) https://arnoldthebat.co.uk/wordpress/chromium-os/ 2) https://www.neverware.com/

I see the ChromeOS team has their own set of scripts to run ChromeOS on KVM, but they are Linux-only it seems. Bad luck :P

I also tried the first option for native but it froze while the "ChromiumOS" logo was shown.

Try the second option (cloudready). It should have undergone more testing.
