Dragged out at old Intel i3 NUC computer (2012 era) from the back cupboard. After replacing the faulty mSATA drive, and getting wired keyboard, installed Linux Mint. I’m impressed. It runs very well considering the age of the hardware and I have even been able to access it via ssh on my iMac. Might see if I can get it running as a web server. It’s years since I tried Linux of any kind, but Mint feels very polished. The messages are very geeky and I'm still not a fan of Nano!
@bananabob@paulhellyer I've also been using it as my daily driver for ten years. I periodically trial fashionable alternatives, but come back to Mint every time.
It's also proven to be the OS that family and older neighbours adapt to most easily. It's a good way of giving older Windows machines a new lease of life.
