1·3 days agoPuppy Linux is fun and cute but nothing really ever worked for me the way a normal distro works. But I haven’t spent much time on it.
How familiar are you with Linux? I recommend lubuntu over xubuntu as it is much more lightweight, at the cost of being more barebones. Also look for guides to make a zram drive for your swap.
The biggest drain on resources tends to be web browsing and writes to disk, so try to minimize these.
I am in a similar position with a 32bit hp laptop, but I think I will try to experiments with a cli-only machine, and go with Debian.

Assets maybe?
I already do 😂
Unfortunately goodwill does not sell computers but they do accept donations, so idk what they do with them.
There is one used computer store in town, but they have some kind of license agreement where they are only allowed to sell to people on food stamps or Medicaid or whatever. You can’t just go in and buy stuff.
That’s a really good tip!
What is webmin, i’ve never heard of it?
Use whatever you have lying around when you start and then when you need new hardware for a certain purpose you can buy it going with the system requirements of that software.
Seconded.
Especially if it could be done on a phone with a non functioning screen.
With chargie you could keep the battery hovering around 50%
Mods should still be able to remove. But if a user deletes their post with comments under it, the most it should do is show deleted user or however reddit does it, and remove the body of the post. But not touch the comments.
