Have to use Windows for work (I've asked), the ads have been getting worse and worse on my work laptop. Today got a game ad notification... That's clearly too far, right? Like I have to clear notifications, so I have to see it

Do it! My ryzen/nvidia 2060 rig is running Mint and everything works great through steam or lutris (a runner/installer)

Is there any distro which works well with touch screens?

I don't think you're going to have a problem on any distro.

My Mint laptop has touchscreen, and it works even in dwm.

My mistake for not being clear, I meant having an interface that's well suited for a tablet. Though I should probably think more about the apps than the rest of the DE.

I believe Gnome has great support for touchscreens including gestures. I don't have a touchscreen to test, though.

Ubuntu and popOS does.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
