Arch and Gentoo - Best Surface Feature Support?
Gentoo - I never did install it on my SP, and I'm pretty sure I won't now. I love Gentoo, and spent many a night compiling away, but when I started to look through things like editing the make.conf, I realized how much I appreciate Arch's approach. If you're interested in trying Gentoo on your Surface, there is at least some support in Gentoo for it, including this howto, this YT video, and this Gentoo overlay, (but again it's 2 years old).

Failed to emerge sys-kernel/surface-sources-5.14.14
Also, the linux-surface overlay for Gentoo that I made is not officially affiliated with the linux-surface project. Thus its not officially supported by them. I may lurk around on the subreddit every once in a while but, you can report future issues on overlay's GitHub itself for better support.

Gentoo Linux - Part 2
If you already have Gentoo installed you can go ahead and add the overlay located here: https://github.com/Parinz/linux-surface-overlay.

I freed my Microsoft Surface Laptop 2 and Apple iMac
I would publish the guide in the overlay wiki itself as the the overlay wiki is meant to be a gateway for surface users to enter Gentoo in general, so you can check it out from there. Writing ebuilds are sure a challenge, I am by no means an expert on it. Help is always welcomed so, you can contribute lol. The tools are from here. Scroll down abit and you'll see some tools like iptsd (ported that already) for example.

Ubuntu 20.04 on Surface Go: Can't boot into GUI, can't boot with USB stick. I'm kinda stuck.
I successfully installed Ubuntu 20.04 on the Surface Go. On the Linux Surface wiki, they recommended installing libwacom-surface for better Pen controls. This actually made the Pen function worse, so I uninstalled it.
