Maybe LM:DE (Linux Mint: Debian Edition)? Obscure software can be a pain to install for the usual reason, but otherwise I'm finding this to be a great distro. Second choice is Solus, but that's even worse when it comes to software.
And they can have some good deals if'n you keep your eyes open, I got an Android tablet from them for $100 off at one point, which is impressive since it was a $275 tablet.
What are we testing?
Brothers are good, but we were having problems with ours, especially the wireless network features so we replaced it with a Canon TS6420a ink jet all in one that prints double sided, and it's been working flawlessly
I would recommend looking at Lenovo, they can have some really good deals. I'm rocking an IdeaPad Flex 5, though I don't actually use the touchscreen features, but it works solid for me (email, document writing/editing, web surfing, movie watching).
I played with an early version of this 2 years or so ago, and at the time I think it was Debian based, though there's an Arch version available. Neither one worked great, particularly the Arch version, but it was a very beautiful distro, if severely lacking in features. Still, it looked like it had potential, maybe I'll play with it again.
Ah, Ok, thanks, should've known there was a proper name for those
I make heavy use of the side bar, I have bookmarks, history, downloads, notepad (unfortunately only local) and even tabs there (would love to get rid of the tab bar), which works pretty well for me. What's PWA?
No Script, UBlock and container tabs, specifically I have containers for Reddit, Google, Amazon, Pixiv and Discord.
I'm fond of Linux Mint: Debian Edition for most of my computers, but run Solus on my travel laptop (recent change), though both of those might be problematic for your needs. Perhaps regular Linux Mint?
