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.

I use xournal++ for notes and math stuff. Have looked at rnote as well but haven't really dove in and tried it thoroughly.
+1 For xournal++. That is what I usually use for annotating slides and drawing with my wacom tablet.
Xournal++ for sure
I haven't tried with a drawing tablet but I like excalidraw a lot for planning things out like my homelab layout or bases in games. I installed the excalidraw container on my server just so I have my own instance always available
Maybe Logseq? It also has a whiteboard function for drawing diagrams and stuff.
The last time I tried it, it wasn't Logseqs' flag ship feature for sure, but as an addition to an already great note taking software, it was good.
Storyboarder ( but I haven't tried it yet ) it seems geared towards 2D animators
Storyboarder is definitely great, although I wouldn't say it's geared towards 2D animation. You could use it like a flipbook, but I think it's more suited towards Storyboard planning.
There's 2 modes, 2D sketching and 3D modeled posing, the latter of which is far, far faster to plot out scenes than hand drawing each one. Again, that doesn't mean you couldn't use it for 2D, just that it's not inherently designed for that process. Still, it's a great program that lets you add voiceovers, has multiple text boxes for details, and has a pretty decent selection of art tools.
rnote is really slick. Haven't used it thoroughly, though. The default recommendation is xournal++,which is a bit more old-school, but still very good.
I've used Xournal++ and Write, both worked pretty well. Saber also looks promising.
It's going to come down to how the program handles smoothing of the pen input, which is going to differ based on how noisy your tablets data is, and on your handwriting.
My professor uses Openboard and it's look really good
