Honestly the wiki is excellent, I do recommend to dive in head first with the install guide

Thunderbird

It is bot the most feature rich and the most annoying thing, but it works

The issue is that it is simply not built with reliability as a high priority so probably some hardware component shits itself too much after a while.There is a reason every reasonable company that needs a server to run reliably in production uses something orders of magnitude more expensive than a rpi.

You lucked out with your previous experiences, but many others did not, or the industry would not pay the price of a rpi a month to run a machine with the specs of a rpi.

That said, if you don't need the reliability some easy hacks like a reboot cronjob or systemd timer, or trying to turn off unneeded services or peripherals could give you 90% of an industrial server's reliability

So i actually have the same laptop and had a ton of fun installing arch on it over the last christmas holidays. The experience made me understand a lot, triggered my new love for arch and was a fun project overall.

I ended up having a stable CLI setup with ytfzf and mpv to watch my favorite yt channels in glorious 720p, got bluetooth working for my headset and all. Very fun experience.

Edit: i am unsure on the 32bit part, I think mine is 64, could be another generation. In any case i also have 1gb of ram
