I have a few years old, weak laptop, don't have specs right now, but it pretty slow.

I want to use it as a Linux laptop for stuff not heavier than internet browsing. What distro would be best to use that has lowest performance impact, but is secure?

Would Alpine be best for this?

I've looked all recommendations up and Lubuntu is what I'm going to go with. Thanks.

Hope it works well. If it doesn't work well it might be faster to pick another distro than trying to fix the problems, rinse and repeat until you find something that works. Doesn't take too much time to put a distro on a usb drive and install it.
