I'm reading this on a Microsoft Surface that I flashed with Linux Mint. Quite satisfying!

Message to Microsoft:🖕

How's that working for you? I've got a surface, and I like it, but I know that Windows is not exactly an efficient piece of software.

Probably could be more slick, but working fine for my everyday needs.

The touch screen didn't work immediately, I had to search up for a command line solution to that. But most won't face that if they flash onto other (non-Surface) hardware.
