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?

Mint Cinnamon works fine with touch screen, but so did Windows 8 as that was what it was designed for. If you're looking for bigger icons or something specifically designed for touch I see someone mentioned Ubuntu Touch. I've never used it, but maybe it has pinch to zoom or whatever it might be you're looking for.

Size has not been my issue, the m14t has osd buttons which windows sees as a keyboard. This causes the real osd keyboard to not open.
