I use to be a huge Ubuntu fan but decided to move back to a hackintosh ~2 years ago.

I still use ubuntu often so i went with Ubuntu Budgie https://ubuntubudgie.org

It has that whole "MacOS" dock look and feel right out of the box.

Good that you found an alternative OS and kept your old mac running. So many people seem content to spend big money on a Mac laptop, have it reach EOL and become landfill as they run out and buy a new one.

Ubuntu Budgie looks nice, thanks for mentioning it - I'll try it sometime.

An old Macbook with an Ubuntu variant is a nice combination of sturdy hardware, light(er)-weight operating system, and well-designed user interface. In a way, it feels more like the spirit of "Macintosh". And it would make for a good educational/toy computer for children and young people. If I see an opportunity, like family or friends who have old laptops or computers, I'm going to offer to set it up for them.
