Great work! Your concept seems quite doable.
If Nothing team makes a laptop: the only right way would be to go non-windows non-apple non-google way.
How would their distro look and feel? It has to be beginner friendly, so I’m guessing probably something Debian based. With GNOME or preferably CINNAMON. I prefer both of their defaults to KDE, Of course all of them offer so much in terms of customisation.
Maybe taking a peek into what VanillaOS has done on Debian base and go from there.
Come on, Nothing team, give us a Linux laptop with your custom OS! ☺
