I have this old Acer One 10 tablet/laptop, used to have windows 8 on it and for some reason has JingOS on it. This here. And I can't for the love of it install any other OS on this thing. Like it doesn't boot from a stick or microSD card no matter what OS I put on the stick or card. Source: about 2 years ago

Check out JingOS, if the device you’re looking to work on is supported. It’s a pure Linux OS that is designed to be touch first, but also pulls a lot of design cues from Apple. https://en.jingos.com/. Source: over 2 years ago
You can use JingOS. It has good support for touchscreen but it is not super stable yet. But for regular usage, I think it's okay. You can also Gnome based OS. The recent Gnome 40 has good touchscreen support. For Gnome 40, you can try Fedora or Ubuntu 20.10. Source: over 2 years ago
Please note that the original app was Xournal [1]. The one you link is a rewrite of the orignal (in C++) and is called Xournal++. [1] https://xournal.sourceforge.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
I do the using Xournal [1] which is tailor-made for creating annotations. It leaves the PDF as is, saving your edits to a sidecar file (*.xoj) which when loaded pulls in the original PDF. It exports edited documents to 'real' PDFs with selectable text etc. [1] https://xournal.sourceforge.net/ (packaged by most distributions). - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
If you don't mind the signature being raster (not vector), I've used Xournal for this in the past. It's extremely lightweight and easy. Just open the PDF file with Xournal, draw the signature, and then export it to PDF (Control + E). This will not rasterise the PDF itself (to the best of my knowledge), but rather just superimposes a layer containing your signature on top of the original PDF. Source: about 2 years ago
Xournal++ exists since 2013. Maybe you typoed and by your comment about abandoning you were referring to Xournal without the ++? The Xournal website even suggests to try Xournal++. Source: over 2 years ago
Xournal works pretty well for me on GNU/Linux. You just have to turn on the "Legacy PDF Export" option. Source: almost 3 years ago
