Said about Tiny Core Linux as an alternative
This is the lightest Linux I could find. Worked fast even on decade old notebook with 1 giga ram. Apps options are limited though.
Extremely small. Very versatile. Libre.
Very small Linux distributive. It seems to be the best choice for an old computer and for a very cheap VPS.
