I'm searching for a lightweight Linux distribution that works well on my Intel N600 Mini PC with a 7-inch touchscreen. As a beginner, I want something intuitive, similar to Windows or macOS, but with certain requirements. It needs to be compatible with a 4096-point stylus, have low RAM consumption, and run programs like LibreOffice and Samsung DeX. Privacy is important to me, so I'd like options that focus on that and possibly include VPN tools. I'm also curious about free and open-source distributions. Any recommendations?

You might want to check out Debian with XFCE or LXQT as they're pretty lightweight and user-friendly. They should run well on your Mini PC.
Bodhi Linux 7.0 HWE is another option you could consider. It's designed to be lightweight and user-friendly, which might fit your needs well!
Honestly, it sounds like you have quite a few requirements! Touchscreen support can be hit or miss on Linux, and while there are some distributions that prioritize privacy, they can come with downsides in terms of usability. You might be better off starting with a more conventional setup and then customizing it as you go along.
