It appears no-one have adressed the issue of wifi/bluetooth support, so I will weigh in.
I have installed Debian derivatives on both a Macbook Pro 2008 and a Macbook Air 2017 and had issues with bluetooth/wireless.
The solution was to identify the wireless chip through the terminal, download the specific DKMS module for that chip to a file on another computer, transfer the module over to the Macbook via USB, blacklist old module, install new, reboot.
This have worked flawlessly for me so far. If you want a tip on a beginner-friendly distro with decent Macbook support, try Pop!_Os.
