I don't know what falls into 'ancient' dabbling in Linux land has shown me some amazing aging tech that people are fighting on with, for me it's a new to me Lenovo D30 from I think 2011. Because the macbook air 2016 (the device that got me into Linux in the first place when it stopped being supported) finally died the other day.

Fair shout, I didn't find the all in one place correct guide this time around, but it came together from scraps of advice found all over so credit where it's due to the community. Liking arch so far, running it on an older machine and had been using endeavour os (so not a massive change) but instead of stripping things out of it until it broke I was keen to build it until it had only what I wanted and see just what I can live without.
