I still play Gears of War and Forza, unfortunately. Hopefully someone gets native Microslop games working on Linux soon.

I’m on the hunt for a replacement for my Surface, but sure as shit not getting anything with copilot. Curious what alternatives are out there.
Linux options seem a little light on the tablet front.

I installed Ubuntu in my surface go 2 and it’s light years ahead of windows in terms of performance.
I couldn’t get the camera to work though. But other than that it’s rock solid.

seems like raspberry pi os on touchscreen devices supports on-screen keyboards and basic touch-screen features. There’s also the Librem 11 tablet, that runs linux on an Intel chip with Gnome.

Why are linux options light on the tablet front? It should work the same as on a laptop

Mint runs great on my dell tablet. Touch screen works fine although I haven’t tried it with a pen yet.

Touch inputs can be a little messy, driver support for closed source hardware (e.g., MS Surface) is understandably rocky, and I’ve had bad experience with battery longevity especially on open source hardware.
My 6-year-old SP battery still has ~70% capacity, which is teriffic. I have had other laptops lose 90% of their capacity after just a year or two, so I’m skeptical of the tablet market.
I’m not saying good Linux tablets don’t exist, just that I’m looking for recommendations since the waters feel murkier to me.
