PeppermintOS? I'm trying to prepare an ancient Chromebook C202S for Linux and have had some ideas from antiX to MXLinux and Loc-OS, but it seems that PeppermintOS may be among the best choices.

The tech level of this Chromebook's end user is unlikely to work well with Arch + BSPWM, which was recommended to me by someone else.

some things are highly dependent on systemd to work.

I'm fearfully curious about what these are...

I think Incus was one I had trouble with. It did run without systemd but part of the installation I had to do manually.

Oh, dang, yeah, this machine would definitely not be running that, haha; never heard of it and just now looked it up.
