I am sick of windows, I have Fedora KDE Plasma 6 on my main pc, and I want to migrate to Linux on my tablet, too, even if I lose some functionality. I also have a stylus for it. I know there are apps that work with it on Linux.

I briefly used Fedora (Gnome) on my SP7 which worked super well. Then I moved to NixOS because I’m a nerd 🤓
I’ve never used NexOS. I’m a beginner with Linux, started with the steam deck, fell in love with it, tried bazzite on my main pc, hated the non-imutability of the os and then went to Fedora KDE Plasma, and I love it, everything is just easy to use. But I was thinking of trying Arch KDE. (SomeOrdinaryGamer made a video recently with Arch, and it intrigued me)
I’d say arch is a great distro if you love to tinker a lot and/or want to learn a lot about the Linux ecosystem. If you don’t recognize yourself in previous sentence I’d probably stick with fedora 🤷
In fact, I do find myself in the sentence, I tinker with all types of stuff, I wouldn’t have tried all of this if I didn’t also like it. I could always be comfortable and stay with Windows, but Linux is fun and and it teaches me a lot about operating systems and networking. Thanks for your words, now I think I will try going with Arch, I decided.
I’m curious how it worked on NixOS. Do you happen to have any Nix config files you can share?
Sadly I kept it private because it exposes a bit of my company’s network structure (with encrypted secrets, but still…) :/
It’s not the best experience though : the pencil doesn’t work as well as in Fedora (GNOME doesn’t detect tablet mode, which only seems to affect buttons behavior) and it recompiles the kernel everytime it needs to be updated (very often, so I pinned a version).
