I have an old (vintage) machine that I resurrected. I installed Debian 8.11 on it, so it's "ready to go". I couldn't bear to just take it to the recycling yard and just had to see if it worked.
Debian stopped supporting the "full" 32 bit as of 8.11, so it's the newest Debian distro you can use. So, I don't put it on the "net" as a server as it doesn't get the latest security updates. I believe you might be able to use the latest Slack?

make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies. And the other
way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies."
