Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. Debian provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over 59000 packages, precompiled software bundled up in a nice format for easy installation on your machine.

I'm wanting to leave Windows, but am struggling as I can't seem to find a Linux stable distro for the SnapDragon X Elite. I have a Galaxy BooK 4 Edge and I noticed Debian shows the most promise. Help would be appreciated

Ubuntu is your best bet. They have a special ISO for it on their discourse.

Yeah, it looks like it's the closet to getting it worked out.

Too my knowledge the Snapdragon support hasn't even been fully fleshed out in the kernel which is probably why you don't have a stable experience.
