Alternative OS for a laptop that won't run Omarchy?

I've been lucky enough to be given a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3x for free, and my planned first action was to wipe Windows 11 off it forever and install Omarchy. Unfortunately I've just learned that the laptop's Qualcomm Snapdragon X processor doesn't natively support Arch, and by extension, Omarchy.

I'm not keen on or confident with experimenting to get Omarchy up and running, so I thought I'd ask the community for suggested alternatives that would work and offer a similar experience? The more out-of-the-box the better, but if I have to make a few tweaks here and there for a distro close in quality to Omarchy then I'm willing to do a bit of extra work.

Still, I'm gutted Omarchy won't work, because I'm using it on my current (dated Dell) laptop and love the interface and concept!
