From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What is the cpu? If something, zswap (250mb) with lz4 and zram (2gb on disk) with lz4 too, on a lightweight distro on btrfs with lzo compression might make it usable. Disk compression might make it usable on the disk side and memory compression might make it run at least not extremely bad on the cpu side. Maybe cachyos with gnome (i know, but it is the only DE with good touchscreen) can be at least usable.
If more things, I can try to help. I have a linux tablet.
Edit: Maybe more space (external sd card with btrfs and lzo) could be used as /home too, but only with more information given, what is the setup?
Edit: My config that I made it work and run decently:
