I hate Microsoft and Windows, I want to choose better AND more importantly, see what all this fuss about Linux being awesomest is about

    So I run a 2-1, and I like the 2-1/ tablet form factor (I actually just ordered this for my new machine) and will 100% be running PopOS on it. You don’t need any hot keys and its tablet mode is dreamy. I have a bit of criticism on the onscreen keyboard (it should be bigger and easier to get to).

    You will need to learn the gestures (three fingers swipe up), but I found that easy enough to learn. I would actually say that the PopOS tablet mode is among the best, maybe even better than windows. I use it about an hour to two a day in this way.

      Thanks! It’s a drawing tablet which uses a stylus, rather than touch or fingers, so it behaves more like a mouse. Would that mode still work?

        So I’ve never used a drawing tablet before, but there is a tab in the settings panel for a ‘wacom tablet’ / ‘stylus’. You might want to check reviews specific to that use case. I’ve just never tried it that way and don’t know very much about stylus.
