Could you download Xcode from the https://developer.apple.com/download/applications/ outside of the VM and then transfer it to the VM?

There are some topics/tags where I would like to be able to read all of the threads under them so it would be nice to have an option when viewing a topic or tag to hide all of the threads that I have already read so I can only see threads that I haven't read.

What I meant was that I wanted to see older threads that I haven't read yet and didn't want to have to scroll past dozens of recent threads that I have already read.

Is there a search operator for this on the Apple Developer Forums? On the Swift forums I can search using #general-announce in:unseen to see only announcements that I have not read yet. https://forums.swift.org/search?q=%23general-announce%20in%3Aunseen%20order%3Alatest
