Bit o’ the ol’ percussive maintenance.

Try each. One of the great things about Linux is how easy it is to just hop around. Spin up a ventoy USB with those and maybe even a few other ISOs. Then boot into each one and go through the process of finding a piece of software (krita, for instance) and running it. Do a doodle of a dog and run a few filters or something. Doing so will tell you which one you like, which one your computer likes, etc.

I have been wanting a Linux phone for ages but I can’t afford a librem and pine seems to have stalled out. Just found out about Furi and now I’m wondering if it really is that good. It’s still expensive but it at least doesn’t look like it’d choke on running a calculator app.
