Thanks a lot for covering FydeOS! We really appreciate it. About the touch screen, we actually have a tablet mode that's perfect for that. You can find a switch in the FydeOS settings to easily toggle between Desktop Mode and Tablet Mode in the control center!

Thanks Lee for this information and comparison video. The way you revisited Windows 8..brought back memories of my old Surface Pro 3, however I had the optional keyboard and trackpad. I kept wishing for Apple to release a tablet MacOs for the IPad, because MS OS is too keyboard dependent and with Windows 11 it’s only got worse.
Have a great day!

I've not tried them all, but I'm more than happy with Android 14 running on a Pi4 and a 7" touch screen (no keyboard or mouse attached)

A keyboard does come up if you use like a proper touch screen. A lot of these USB touch screens on Linux their drivers just simulate a mouse, but on my Chromebook tablet which I installed KDE plasma on via crostini, I was able to get an on the screen keyboard (not the Chrome OS one) open up automatically. It might also be that you didn't install the malitt keyboard package

Hard pass on KDE Mobile. No Gnome mobile? 🤔
