> You can get a decent little drawing tablet for $30 these days. You'd probably spend half of that in the cost of pens over the device's lifetime. They're no longer ultra-expensive specialized equipment.

Can you suggest a model?

Huion H620 is a 4:3 tablet that is old enough to be pretty cheap. Their 16:9 tablets are just fine at least when I get the $40-60 ones.

Osu! Style drawing tablets are also a thing but they are small, maybe you want to spring for a slightly bigger tablet.

Well if you're on linux a second-hand one would be great, given you don't have their drivers (and you do have open ones). I have a Graphire3 6x8.

I got my wife an XP-PEN Deco01 V2 for $60 a couple months ago to help with teaching and it has been great. Not $30, but still very affordable.
