I tried sudo iio-sensor-proxy and it returns empty
Ubuntu is more "cutting edge" than MX.
HP 15; ryzen 3 5300U APU; 500 Gb SSD; 8GB ram
HP 17; ryzen 3 3200; 500 GB SSD; 12 GB ram
Idea Center 3; 12 gen i5; 256 GB ssd;

In Linux, newer isn't always better. The best solution is the one that works.

I tried it, doesn't work with Yoga 370, if it works on Ubuntu then there must be a way to get it working here on MX

Debian is much more conservative in their approach than Ubuntu (which is why it's so stable) and it will catch up to Ubuntu but it will take some time. Patience is key here.

More likely it will be MX 25 or 26 as our releases are dated by the year they go final. If tablet mode is a deal breaker for you, I suggest that you switch to Ubuntu for the time being and return to us here at MX when we also have that functionality.
