I have an old Subnotebook (at least 10 years old I think) which runs Windows 7 atm. I would like to run Linux on it. I‘m a Linux noob, but would like to try and learn a few things. Any recommendations?

Specs? How much fiddling do you want to do?
Distro won’t matter so much as Desktop Environment. KDE Plasma and MATE are both sensible choices, both very popular, and good for anyone who wants a familiar mouse and window kind of experience.
If it were me, I’d probably just download something like Debian and then set up one of those two DEs (which might even be possible directly from the installer; I can’t remember).
