I have a 14 year old laptop that runs like a top with debian 12 on it.

Same with mine, i'm only still to dumb to get it using the old nvidia gpu instead of the intel graphics. Didn't take the time yet to look further into it

How about installing Gentoo on it?

Not sure the 0.01s of reduced login time is worth the 30 hours it'll take to build the kernel.

no one is seriously going to install gentoo on an old laptopt just to get it slightly faster. Gentoo is for hobbyists
