currently daily-driving their Aeon flavour. it may be the best Linux-for-beginners i’ve ever seen. the installer has no options at all and just overwrites the disk with a preloaded partition which means installation takes literally five minutes. it’s auto-updating, immutable, snapshots itself so it can roll back when something breaks, and basically only allows Flatpaks. on first boot you get an empty desktop with browser, app store, notes app, and calculator, and those are literally the only user applications on the machine. very refreshing.
i think it should. i’m running it on an amd laptop but one of the first things it did after installation was pop up a window that said “your system requires some drivers, we have installed them and they will be available next boot” and that made the camera, fingerprint reader and multitouch just start working.
i’ve not tried it but apparently gaming “just works” after installing the steam flatpak.

That sounds really cool! Do you know if they include GPU drivers (NVDIA) or how you’d install them?
