Looking for some suggestions, preferably with existing tested compatibility with the Framework laptop hardware so I can do more well rounded research. I’m the most familiar with Ubuntu and CentOS. Picked Ubuntu initially for mid 2000s nostalgia purposes but it’s time to move on.

EDIT: As some people have pointed out, “more privacy oriented” was probably not the best phrase to use here. I am looking to move off of a Linux OS with corporate sponsorship and also looking forward to exploring Linux OSes that are privacy focused.

    gpu usability is massive issue, HW acceleration is quite significant. video players and webrowsers rely on it for good video playback in a lot of cases. qubes on moderately low end hardware really chugs because of this.

    now not all is doom and gloom, Qubes does use XEN which is actually getting virtio work for it. vulkan and hwacceleration for VMs will be supported… eventually on the hypervisor level, which will be a massive usability boost for qubes

    EDIT: that being said, I havent personally tested it so I cant say how good or bad it is, unlike qemu/crosvm which I have tested.
