It essentially is a replacement for a mouse, I set FreeCAD to use Blender input settings since I’m used to those. It’s one without a screen, just a USB that I use with a kickstand hub on my Deck. I picked it because it was cheaper then a screen style drawing tablet and it would help most with Blender for modeling organic sculpture. It was a simple plug-and-play, although the software to enable some extra features was available for Linux and was a snap to add. I experimented using it with FreeCAD and it’s pretty similar to using a mouse, so I don’t need both inputs taking up table space.
I use it for 3D modeling using a BT keyboard and a drawing tablet. Works great with Blender and FreeCAD both.

How does the drawing tablet work for FreeCAD? And is it one with or without a screen?
Curious on the use case.

Ahhh makes sense, thanks.
Same I have been learning blender and using it on my deck! Super cool to hear about others doing so!
Also kdenlive is a nice linux non linear video editor available on flathub/the discover app browser.

I have been using kdenlive to browse, edit and compose gameplay videos right on the deck, it is a really nice easy experience.
