The key to such heavy customisation in Linux is using a different window manager. The distributions you listed all come with big name ones like GNOME or KDE which are awesome to get started with Linux. OP uses sway so have a look at that. It’s a lot of work to set things up if you go down that path. Make sure you don’t make things so hard on yourself that you end up going back to Windows.
That makes sense. I’m familiar with the concepts at least. Thank you!
And yeah, the plan here is to acclimate myself so when I set my kids up with computers they’ll use it without realizing there ever was a need to use Windows.
