I recently was able to acquire an older Dell Venue 11 Pro 7130 with an Intel i3-4030Y and 4GB of RAM.
I installed Fedora GNOME spin thinking GNOME might be the right DE for touch interfaces. Sadly it behaves sluggishly and the touch capabilities are lacking. Nautilus for example can’t deal with long clicks to simulate right clicks, making file browsing a chore since I need to plug in a mouse and keyboard.
Does anyone have any experience with older convertibles? What distro do you use to make use of the touch interface while keeping a snappy system?

I second Plasma as a touch desktop. Neon is pretty great, but I’m not a huge fan of the LTS base + bleeding edge DE combo. I’d personally recommend either Fedora KDE for frequent updates overall, or Kubuntu LTS for general stabilty.

Fedora KDE or better ublue.it Kinoite I would say.
Btw what did you choose?
