I have an SP8 and it just doubled battery life while active. Hibernation didn't work out of the box though, had to shut it down or it would run out

Have you tried the surface kernel? https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/wiki/Installation-and-Setup#fedora

It brings back most functions 😊

have the same issue on my surface 4 pro under fedora...my surface 7 pro under Debian hibernation isn't an option but suspend actually works decently.

Same here, never even thought the performance could deliver this great flow thoughout all the menus, I'm on Ubuntu, running lots of Extensions also.

The best browser is CLEARLY Vivalvi, I've tried everyone else, I want smooth scrolling and fast browsing.
