Does Surfshark run on Linux?
Verdict: Yes
Yes. Surfshark makes a Linux app with a proper window rather than typed commands, available through Snap and Flathub, and your existing subscription covers it.
Surfshark's Linux page describes a full app with a graphical interface, which is a real improvement on the typed-commands-only versions VPN companies used to hand Linux users. You pick a country, connect, and get on with your day.
It is offered through Snapcraft and Flathub, which are two of the app stores your Linux system can use, so installing and updating it works the same as anything else. Surfshark says it has tested the app on Debian 11 and newer, Ubuntu 20.04 and newer, and Linux Mint 20 and newer, on GNOME, KDE and XFCE, for both Intel and ARM machines.
Check your distribution appears on that tested list rather than assuming. Other systems often work, but you get less help if something breaks.
Your account carries straight over. Sign in with the same details and this machine counts as one of your devices, exactly as adding a phone would. There is nothing to export and no files to move.
