  • I haven’t checked back on it since I stopped using reddit (and I no longer use a surface pro) but there was a pretty active surface Linux community there as well with some good resources. For a lot of models you’ll need a USB keyboard/mouse to actually install the distro but once you can load the custom surface linux kernel things worked pretty well for me.













  • I’m a CS student and Linux was great for all of the programming classes. For any classes that were more writing focused you can still use the online versions of MS office/Google drive. I’m assuming there aren’t any programs you’ll need specific to psychology but that is sometimes a problem with some STEM majors like engineering

    The one problem that kept me dual-booting on my laptop was OneNote. I like taking notes using a pen for some classes (and my laptop has pen support) and nothing I tried on Linux even comes close in my experience. I tried obsidian + excalidraw plugin, along with xournalpp, but nothing came close for the way I take notes.
