I use a 2010 MacBook Air with Debian and i3 for writing and coding practice using vim and cmdline tools. No web browser installed. For those tasks I'm much more productive on it than on any modern machine I own. I just wish the battery life were better.
- wrycoder 3y agoSo follow iFixit and replace the battery. It is just a few screws. I have a 2011 Air that I resolved with an M1. I expect to put Linux on the 2011. Devuan and i3.
- jebarker 3y agoI did follow iFixit and replaced the battery and SSD. Battery life is still terrible compared to a modern laptop. It's just a limitation of 14 year old tech.
