please boost!!!

hey so. peeps in seattle. i need a shitty laptop to turn into a writerdeck

i've tried the alphasmart neo2 word processor. it's too bulky to reliably bring places in its case and getting writings over to my main pc from it is a huge pain

i've also tried the pinephone with keyboard case. it has LOTS of jank as fuck issues that basically make it unusable for my purposes

i've also-also tried the librem 5 with nexdock but, ofc, linux jank has made that unusable. like oh my god the librem 5 battery drains so fast. linux phones are an absolute mess right now

i just want something simple that works that i can install writerdeckOS on or some simple linux distro with a text editor and use only or primarily for writing on the go

this has been the dream for years. but poverty

can anyone help me out? if you've got a chromebook or something that is just gonna be tossed out or left on a shelf forever otherwise, could you maybe consider tossing it my way?

thanksies :3
