Do they play nice with Linux?

I'd personally probably not get one unless it's used for a really good deal. Those Intel 11th gen processors are fairly old at this point.

What's the performance leap of Intel b/w 2gens? I have heard that they weren't able to scale down the nm, so I don't expect a leapfrog in performance.

It depends on the particular chip but you generally do get better performance and efficiency. The AMD options are also great. It really depends on how much of a discount you're getting on the older hardware and what your use cases might be.
