I’ve bought a Surface Go 2 a few years back and the startup time has steadily risen from a poor ~2min to well over 5min. But ever since I’ve deactivated secure boot and installed Debian with Plasma, it’s become my beloved workhorse with a boot time of <1min after entering the LVM key.
Surfaces are great hardware for the (old) price. A pity hardware’s becoming unaffordable…
From my favorite e-waste retailer I saw that the pricing of surface go 2 and 3 is enticing and I wanted to try them - but with Linux. With Linux is usable, right? Plasma can recognize tablet mode automatically?
