I know nothing about linux on intel or ppc... never used it, only seen videos about it. Ive seen threads posted here on linux and I am now wondering, A G5 quad is very fast on linux and G4s are actually quite usable (from videos ive seen), but can a G3 be made usable today for light internet/youtube on Linux?
G3's can be slow on tiger and when it comes to internet browsing. would linux fix this possibly? there are light weight browsers available for linux/ppc. It would be cool to use my 600mhz iMac daily without too much frustration...
I found a video from early 2015 showing a 400mhz G3 playing a youtube video (in the broswer!) The OS was linux Mint PPC 11. If anyone still uses linux on a g3, is this still possible? youtube playback with Adobe Flash was still a thing back in 2015 but now its only HTML 5. The video did not specify if it was playing using Flash or HTML 5.
