For any streaming, Netflix, YouTube, or anything I would always use a computer. Not some awful app on a slow device. No screen of mine needs to be anything besides a screen.

I wouldn't say this is "better"

I do run a pihole, but I still will never connect my roku to the internet. It is much better to have a media PC or other streaming device I have control of fully connected.

I have an older lenovo T590 that work great. And a T15. They can be had at reasonable prices. T590 has an 8th gen i7. The T15 has a 10th gen i7. They work well for me.

But yeah, absolutely get your point.

Not saying it can't be done. I know it can. And glad it can. Gives people who locked into buying a M$ product the option. That's part of the beauty of Linux and open source.

I just would never recommend anyone to go buy a surface for the sole purpose of running Linux.

I ran Arch on mine when I had it. And it had its drawbacks. When I bought my next machine, a Lenivo, I had so much better support. It made the whole experience that much better.

I hate Microsoft. And I hope they crumble. Every last bit of them.

First mistake was using a microsoft device.
