librewolf using a CSS to make it easier to use on touchscreens. note the bigger navigation buttons.

    I ran Debian on one of the surface pros a few years ago. It took a bit of hardware hacking, but it was great.

    I use a TWM and spend most of my time in the shell, so I didn’t get to utilize a lot of the OS features. But things like reading comics, and surfing the web were pretty cool.

    I always wondered if Gnome would be a better interface for it. It seems like they’ve been leaning that direction for a while.
