I have a laptop from 2014 and I’m thinking of installing Kubuntu or Arch. I don’t know much about linux but the computer is not important and is damaged so I can screw it What would you recommend? I’m thinking of something customizable (Arch) but easy to use (so Kubuntu is a good option)

If the English is not good, blame the translator 😃👍

I have the minimum requirements for both.

Edit: The computer isn’t suposed for be a daily driver. And thanks for the replies.

Edit 2: I use Kubuntu btw

    I’d suggest AntiX, as it’s great for crappy hardware and a personal favourite of mine, but seeing as I chose Mint for my first distro that stayed installed more than a day, after I broke AntiX and couldn’t figure out what I even broke or how to fix it… (don’t ask who recommended that as a beginner distro to my clueless self…) yeah. Mint. Maybe go with XFCE or something rather than Cinnamon, modern DEs take up a lot of resources on an already chugging shitbox.
