Before you move to Linux, have you had a look at OpenCore Legacy Patcher? It will allow you to install newer versions of MacOS on your unsupported MBP. Mr Macintosh’s channel on YouTube is a good resource for this.
I had not looked into that but the MBP I want to install Linux on is truly an extra laptop. I get a laptop refresh every 3 or so years from work and get to keep the old one, so at this point I have 2 former work computers so I want to try out the install for the experience. Otherwise I'd just consider recycling it at this point.
