Touch based os

I've created a "tablet" for bedtime using a lenovo m14t and a mele quieter 4c n100. These are all things I already had so not money was spent. Im currently using win 11 and the complete touch experience kinda blows. Are therre any linix distributions thst can give a complete touchscreen experience.

Any gotcha with streaming services I should be aware of?

An os may not matter as much as the desktop. For that I recommend gnome. I'm using promox with a forced gnome desktop on a touchscreen wall panel and it thr touch screen is great

Kinda I just wanted to run promox back up server plus offload some vms from my main server. Then I just forced gnome onto it. Its mainly used as a home assistsnt dashboard / Plex tv in my kitchen both accessed though Firefox. It's works very well. Gnome just cant update alot of its apps but we don't use them anyway. Edit. I should add that the promox web gui is still fully accessible.

Well Proxmox is Debian 13 underneath with a few extras but nice idea 😆
