I've been mostly Windows free for 6 months now. I use Win 11 for work and I bought an old Surface Pro 4 with Win 11 installed to learn Nomad Sculpt. I am just too afraid of testing Linux on a machine tailor made around Windows.

I tried, but the DPI options in all distros I tried are too limited for my needs. I have one 4k monitor and two 1080p monitors. Zorin OS 18 only allowed me to set 200% on all screens IF they were all mirrored, so completely useless for me. I'm not using the terminal either. I want my main screen to be at 150% or so, or I can't see shit, and my side monitors to be (obviously not mirrored) at 100% DPI.

If anyone knows of a distro that allows the same settings as Windows for three monitors, please advice. I want to jump ship, I really do.
