I was daily driving Pop_OS before my System76 finally gave it up. I mostly enjoyed the experience, but when my laptop gave it up, I had to run to a big box store and grab a replacement asap. I’m now riding an HP envy touch screen fliptop and (:puke:) windows 11.

I’ve been hesitant to throw linux onto this puppy because frankly, having never had a touch/ flip screen before, I’m really digging it. Has anyone here run linux on a touch screeen? Issues? A specific release I should consider? Any other considerations?

    I have a touchscreen laptop, and GNOME is 100% the most polished desktop I tried on it. IMO they have the best touchscreen implementation I’ve ever seen (even better than windows): the mouse pointer is separate from the touchscreen “pointer”. So if you tap the display somewhere, your mouse won’t go there.
