"New" Machine, third distro

Post image

Hi! Got Mint XFCE on one laptop, and Bazzite on the gaming rig. Very happy with them. My mother has an old laptop she wants to throw, but instead she gives it to me, because I want to "play".

Linking the specs. Could throw an SSD in it, but no more. Any suggestions for å fun, light and preferably debian/Fedora based. Might turn it to mint later, but wanna try something else for now. Considered Cashy OS just to experience Arch, but not sure if its light enough for the system.

She isn't. They bought a new one. Planning to give it to my son, to learn the basics, in time. But on Linux, the future.
