TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

Low on resources? My old hardware is interested. Which others would you recommend?

You might be semi-comfortably running linux mint cinnamon on these (assuming 4gb ram) with xfce you’re trading clunkiness and ancient looks for lower memory usage

no idea about the usual suspects, wifi, bt, graphics probably will require tinkering as is tradition

Arch if you know what you’re doing. It’s what I use, but my machine is pretty beefy. I’ve used xubuntu on the mini PC attached to my TV for about 6 years without a hiccup.
