      I was reading about this solution. My main laptop is a MacBook Air with M2 so I don’t think I can run any version of Linux on it. I have an old windows laptop I’m thinking about trying it on.

      Would Linux still run fine on an older laptop?

        Lots of Linux distributions are specifically built for older laptops! And all of them tend to run pretty well on lower end equipment. Here’s a list that also mentions the specs needed for each one: https://linuxsimply.com/best-linux-distros-for-old-laptops/

        Linux Mint, probably the most popular one on all computers nowadays regardless of specs, has a minimum RAM requirement of 2GB with 4GB recommended :) they make Linux distros for old tiny Raspberry Pi computers so even if your computer is a hundred years old you’ll probably be able to run TinyCore on it at least
