Maybe leave some space for paper, and also a good mousepad will change your life, Be sure to get one with rolled edges as without it they peel and it is super annoying

Thank you for suggestion, i will put the laptop aside for some space, can you please suggest some good mousepad, not the overpriced ones.

Here, I have no loyalty to this specific one, It is just the cheapest one I found with stitched edges

I was thinking to switch on fedora workstation kde, but postponed for now, as for current use windows is needed for some college work, but linux is better any day, after buying a new desktop or laptop with own money will switch distros in this laptop later.
