I replaced Windows with Linux, and there’s only one feature I miss

Here is some a helpful piece of advice. If you are trying to put Linux on hardware that was designed specifically for Windows, you are probably going to fight with it more than you will using hardware built by a different manufacturer.

My experience with Linux has been great. I have it on a Lenovo laptop and a customer desktop I built five years ago. I didn’t need to do any “command line” stuff to get it running.

The minute I saw the author mentioned they were putting it on a Surface device, I realized they were giving themselves a challenge. Surface is built by Windows for Windows. I would not recommend putting Linux on a Surface device.
