Yup, i have a mid 2012 mbp with linux mint xfce and it runs great. My biggest complaint is the hardware support. Had to add a usb wifi dongle because broadcom chip was constantly dropping and the sleep wake takes forever and sometimes it wont sleep. But otherwise runs like a champ. I do kinda wish it would die so i could get a laptop without the sleep/wake issues.

1·29 days agoDid you try out tailscale?
Whats the setup? Do you have a github or codeberg repo?
5·1 month agoThose things got pretty hot if i remember correctly. Does it have any ventilation?
maybe think of it like water flowing through pipes:
Apps, websites, videos, and maps are taps that use water.
When you open an app or load a webpage, data flows from the internet to your phone (downloading).
When you send a photo, message, or upload something, data flows from your phone to the internet (uploading).
Your mobile plan gives you a certain amount of water (data).
Some general data sizes
Small image (thumbnail): 50 KB — e.g., 200×200px JPEG thumbnail photo, quick social-media preview.
Single full page of text (plain): 10–50 KB — e.g., one A4 page saved as plain .txt or small Word .docx without images.
Single full page of text (scanned PDF, image): 500 KB–2 MB — e.g., scanned A4 page at moderate resolution saved as PDF.
Normal web page (text + images + CSS + JS): ~10-50MB — typical news article with several images and scripts.
Sorry i should have clarified, alternatives to proton mail?
Downloaded, I’ll check it out. Is your friend interested in feedback?
Do you recommend any alternatives to proton?
Yes tailscale is amazing, give it a shot. What is your up/down speed?

How much runtime do you get out of the battery? Mine still has the original, runs about 1 - 1.5hrs.
