Looking for the "non-phone" OS

[alaraajavamma]

Hi folks, I've had my PP for a while now, I've run Manjaro Plasma, PmOS Sxmo, and recently Mobian Phosh.

While I still like my PP and ssh'ing into my phone never gets old, lately I have to admit I don't really use it as a phone.

So I'm looking for the "non-phone" OS. The NonPhone perhaps. I've done some searching on this topic but haven't turned up anything yet.

The goal would be to write/modify apps for it, just not typical "phone apps" like a web browser, maps, messaging, etc. So I would still like a well performing UI, touch gestures, etc. Think of it as a mini computer with a touch screen.

What are my options?

I have read this message many times but I still don't understand what do you want

You have unlimited options if you don't mind to do the work but if you want "well performing UI and touch gestures" work even somehow out-of-the-box then just use some popular options (like mobian phosh) and remove all phone stuff?
