I run Mint on an Acer Aspire One, 1 gig and an Atom, and it works fine. Slow and won't play videos of course but is usable for web stuff and email etc.
I run opensuse tumbleweed kde on the same laptop, I've put 8gb ram and 360gb ssd and wifi 6e ax210 hmw card in it and it works good as casual machine
This is the old one that supportsb1 GB max :D Came with 512mb as I recall
