Well, color me bizarre, then, as I have two computers laying around here
with less than 1GB of RAM ... no, wait, 3 - and that third one is a
pretty new, but small form factor, computer.
And lets not forget my 2 very old laptops that I've used for reading
floppy disks....
Ok, well, yeah, maybe I *am* a dinosaur ;-) Or at least use dinosaurs
as computers! ;-)

This is the Linux I know!!

The last time they made a computer with less than 1GB RAM was the
bargain basement computers from 2007. Normal computers of that time
came with 2GB or 4GB.

In wealthy nations like US, UK, and EU, it would be bizarre to find
somebody running a computer with less than 1GB of RAM, so I think those
tiny versions are aimed for people in third world countries. If you
have 1GB RAM you can run almost any distro if you carefully curate your
applications. Almost all desktops and laptops made in the last 10 years
have at least 4GB RAM.
