[Hardware] WIll Debian with KDE Plasma run ok on a 2012 Macbook Air

I am currently using Debian/KDEPlasma on a Sager/Clevo laptop from 2014 and it seems to be working well. A family member has an old Macbook Air (2012 - 8GB RAM) that no longer receives updates or allows connection to the internet in the browser.
I already tested Mint w/ XFCE on the Macbook Air running from USB for a few minutes and it seems to work fine but I like the look of Plasma better and I think the family member would too. They are basically going to use it as a web browsing machine and a storage device.

I noticed for my laptop it seems to run smoother with Debian + KDE Plasma and I want to run the same OS+DE on my family members Macbook so I can help out easier if I need to.

Is there anything I should do after installing it on the Macbook Air? (packages/configurations etc for a smoother experience)
