My kids got into Minecraft.
I gave my oldest an old laptop. Put Kinoite on it. Now he prefers java edition.
Minecraft doesn't need much. It plays acceptably (for him) on a T460p...I think that's like a 6th Gen i7...as long as he doesn't go too crazy with mods.
Honestly at that point the bottleneck would be Windows if he's using that as the operating system, and RAM. I still play modded Java edition to this day, since 2014 :)
Kinoite is an immutable Linux distro from fedora.
Tho I think, in retrospect, his laptop is still on tumbleweed. Id been meaning to switch.
Ah apologies, never heard of Kinoite.
