Touch screens on linux? - eviltoast

I was daily driving Pop_OS before my System76 finally gave it up. I mostly enjoyed the experience, but when my laptop gave it up, I had to run to a big box store and grab a replacement asap. I’m now riding an HP envy touch screen fliptop and (:puke:) windows 11.

I’ve been hesitant to throw linux onto this puppy because frankly, having never had a touch/ flip screen before, I’m really digging it. Has anyone here run linux on a touch screeen? Issues? A specific release I should consider? Any other considerations?

    I have a Thinkpad with a touch screen running on Gnome and it’s nice but I find I only really use it when scrolling on a website.

    A lot of things work like pinch to zoom too.
