Just installed Ubuntu on a really old MacBook. Seems snappy. Great way to bring an old laptop back from the dead. Best part - Google and Apple can’t be forced to give my data to the US government.

I tried this in my old MBP. Worked OK except I needed a new battery in my machine. Didn't stick with it due to lack of time to fully take advantage, & I don't really need a laptop anyway, just my tablet. But in principle it does seem to be a viable option. Also tried Elementary OS.
Posting with Linux Mint, Cinnamon desktop on an ancient HP business computer! I'll never go back. Two laptops, with the same distro. My wife uses windows still...she is still drawn to the 'dark side'!
Cheers!
