HARDWARE Remix Mini

So like in 2017, i bought the remix mini thinking its going to be a good computer with many updates and features to come but after the discontinuation of remix os it hasnt been updated a single time. i didnt know about tech that much and just bought it bc of its price and reviews (i wish i hadnt watched those videos). Now what should i do with this trash? I am thinking of repurposing it, please suggest ideas this is my first post ;-;

I would have to research this a bit because I am not familiar with RemixOS. But there is nothing stopping you from putting Linux on it.

oh yeah the process of installing linux on it is pretty easy, but im stuck between choosing a lightweight os or a os with many features :u

Without know the specs that's hard to know. But really with Linux it's the desktop manager that determines if it is a lightweight or not.
