Don’t thank me, thank Stallman. I stole it straight from straight him ;-)

That’s good to hear. I assume the normal- and IR-cameras aren’t working? The latter is nice to have, the former is a bit of must-have in today’s remote work environment.
Surface wasn’t meant to run linux. Its a struggle to get it working on them.
/owner of 3 defenestrated surface devices.
One thing protonpass does better then the competition is exporting your passkeys that is generated within it. AFAIK, bitwarden supports creating and authenticating with passkeys, but you cannot export them.
Linux from scratch, does that count?
(It isn’t a distro, but more of a learning project that will expand your knowledge a lot, after you’ve emitted buckets of blood, sweat and tears)
I imagine it being about snaps. People seems to hate snap with a passion.
I still use Ubuntu in certain cases. Their LTS offerings are excellent.
I can vouch for nobara. WiFi and touchscreen worked flawlessly OOTB.
What’s wrong about it?
For those intrested, I created a !surfacelinux@lemmy.ml community here on Lemmy to collect information regarding linux on surface devices. Mods and contributors welcome!

I want to start with Btrfs and snapshots, is there a good, beginner friendly tutorial for those coming from a ext* filesystem?
Actually, windows puts 95% of it files in a single directory, and sometimes you get a surprise DLL in your \system[32] folder.
Does Nobara have surface kernel built in?!?? This is news to me, might reinstall due to this.
I’m running Ubuntu on an XPS and everything worked OOTB (except for IR-cameras) - even the nvidia drivers. Ubuntu has really good hardware support, but I wouldn’t count on Dell being reliable on linux compatibility.
Oh, you’ve been missing out on a lot of “fun” 😄
In my experience, ubuntu seems to support a few more wifi cards OOTB. And for me that is an essential feature - I don’t want to deal with getting the network up without access to the internet. I still experience Fedora to be smoother as a desktop though.
I use fedora for the nice OOTB experience, but if there’s issues with parts of the hardware - I try Ubuntu. And if it works, I just install it.
Life’s too short to deal with hardware blobs.
What circumstances would that be? I can’t see the use case doe this, but I’m open to see how and when that would be needed.
Only 80%?!? I assume *BSD isn’t counted in that number. I really can’t see people running windows on their servers…
And to be honest, server stability != display server stability.
One feature foot is missing is ligatures. So if that is important to you, you’ll need to look for an alternative.
The dev of foot is an awesome person though, so that could offset the missing feature for some :-)
Do not get the L-models. They’re cheap, have crappy build quality and I daresay that thinkpad skimps on the non-obvious parts that will hinder performance - even though the machine looks powerful on paper.
Put your money into a better product instead.
