eGPU support on Linux
If you're ok with running X11, you can use egpu-switcher and modify the Xorg configuration yourself afterwards.

How do i switch from PCI GPU to integrated GPU?

Hotplug eGPU without reboot/re-login?
here is the hotplug script that seemed promising, but did not work for me (nVIDIA only) here is a more sophisticated-looking script that seems intended for Desktop-users though, and also specifically excludes hotplugging options...

Intel ARC A750 eGPU - A Niche Nightmare (help wanted)
The A750 is now a recognized PCIe device, and works with connected displays to an extent. During boot, KMS/Plymouth shows on connected displays, as well as GDM (albeit, laggy, but it did that before anyways). The problem starts with Xorg, where during startx, I get a No screens found error. My Xorg configuration was autogenerated by egpu-switcher, where it only fails in egpu mode (connected displays do not work in internal mode). GNOME on Wayland works surprisingly with my laptop display working as normal, but the eGPU's external displays come with various graphical glitches, stuttering, outputting to 1080i30 on a 1440p60 display, etc.

eGPU support on System76 Laptops
This is the utility I used to configure X11 and this is the utility I used for Wayland. I tinkered with them both a fair amount and they're both pretty good, but neither let's you dock/undock seamlessly. I don't eGPU full-time, but I still have it configured for X11 on Pop!_OS 22.04, so I just connect the eGPU and reboot to use it.

I switched from macOS to Linux after 15 years of Apple
> Linux is the OS for people who like tinkering.
This is just flat out wrong. I spend more time waiting for OS X to "upgrade" than I ever do with package management and kernel upgrades in Linux. Ultimately upgrades in Linux are easier, there's no tinkering required. For odd configurations, sure - there may be some tinkering you can do to make things work more how you'd like. For example I have a SFF desktop machine that runs an eGPU. I only want the eGPU for some OpenCV use cases and I run the iGPU for my desktop window manager. Sure, in that case I did have to tweak things a bit, but I actually found an eGPU manager [0] in the process and everything now "just works".
But printing, window management, software installation, etc are all simple and just as easy (if not more so) than what you've described - "...hand-editing config files". I'd say you are not a Linux user or have not tried any notable Linux distributions in a long time if that's your perspective.
> As for corporations - they already control your hardware.
No, they don't. While, yes, Intel and AMD may have things in their hardware that I don't control - the Linux distributions I use don't have copious amounts of telemetry being fed back to corporations like Apple/Microsoft/Google.
> But worse - Linux and corporations have both locked down your imagination to the point where you cannot imagine that your experience does not generalise.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here but I'd have to say, in my opinion, the comment doesn't seem to make any sense given my long-term experience with Linux on the desktop.

The Future of Snapcraft | Ubuntu
OpenBuildService is better in every way, is fully opensource everywhere and can even generate packages for ubuntu better than launchpad appears to, and can even build entire distros. No special integrations are necessary, it can cost-effectively work with a highly paralellized number of virtual machines (iinm 100 or more on generic threadripper or epyc).

Why is it so difficult for a software application team to support so many distributions via packaging? Is there no machinery to robotically package any application for any of the given major distributions? Why not?
Suse's OBS is another option, and there are likely others...

Linux on the Desktop: Part Two
Good idea, give it a try. I'd recommend Kubuntu or Mint with Cinnamon. I switched to KDE for KDE Connects' amazing smartphone (Android) integration, which i recommend srrongly to try. Switched to openSUSE Tumbleweed myself, best KDE implemention IMHO, rolling release and the software selection is great, whats missing from the repos can be installed via opi, a client for [0]. It is not that newbie friendly though, since SUSEs' focus is on the enterprise ie safety over ease of use.

Try it on openSUSE, the best KDE integration by far IMHO, since it is their standard DE since IDK/forever? Tumbleweed offers the newest packages, rolling like Arch, but with a huge test battery on OBS (https://openbuildservice.org/). Snapshots on upgrade make the thought of breakage (haven't had any) tolerable.

Valve Steam Deck
Have you tried openSUSE Tumbleweed? It is a well tested rolling release (https://openbuildservice.org/), with snapshots on update via btrfs.
With the opi package you can install: chrome, codecs, dotnet, msedge, msteams, plex, skype, signal, slack, teamviewer, vivaldi, vscode, vscodium, zoom and more.
Brave is app i am missing so far, but having the newest version KDE and other software that required a PPA on Ubuntu is pretty nice.
And it feels much snappier installed on a SATA SSD than Mint from a NVME SSD on the same machine!
