    I’ve got a Surface Pro 5 with the dogshit m3 processor and 4GB of Ram, anyone have any concept of how it’d run under linux? It basically folds at any real task in Windows

    Getting a surface pro 8 soon, looking forward to getting Linux on it!

    Edit: installed Pop OS on my SP8, had to switch to Wayland and also needed to do some tweaks to get the keyboard to work to decrypt but it’s running well so far. I believe you can get the camera working with the proprietary camera stack but it’s not a priority for me right now

    Is KDE good for touch? I always though gnome would be the way to go for touch.

    Surface Laptop 3 running Kubuntu, such an improvement over what it was “designed” for.

    I’m sure it is an improvement until… you’ve to use Wine to run something Windows only or a VM and end up on the exact same spot as initially but with extra steps and less performance. 😂 😂 😂
