Recommendations for mobile Linux desktop environments that run well on an x86 tablet? (lemmy.ml)

I have an unused Windows tablet from 2021 running some Core M processor or other that I want to put Linux on and start using again. It doesn't have a keyboard so I would have to actually use it as a tablet and not a laptop. Is there a distro built around one of the mobile desktop environments that also runs well on x86? (Last time I tried Linux mobile it was pretty much only for ARM and I never got it to work well on even an x86 virtual machine.) Or is regular GNOME deskrop still my best bet for a tablet?

@usia @dingdongitsabear @HiddenLayer555 @postmarketOS I completely missed the deprecation notice. Thanks!
