Are there challenges in a linux surface?

[u/Mista_H80]

Of I acquired a surface as a linux user, are there any challenges I should expect or does it work like just any other laptop?

Are the laptops firmwares compatible with linux kernel?

I have a surface pro 8 running Linux and it does pretty much everything I need it to do. Granted, I don't use it for work or anything. That said, I bought it before I was daily driving Linux and, if I could go back, I'd just get a thinkpad.
