Linux on late 2013 MBP
I run my 2013 with the intel gpu kernel blacklisted and the nvidia 470 graphics drivers. The virtual TTYs and wayland don’t work but everything else works fine. For the fan/cpu stuff you can look at https://github.com/linux-on-mac/mbpfan

Ubuntu 20.04.4 on an old Macbook Pro
Check out mbpfan. Although, overheating on an 360p video sounds very wrong even without mbpfan, I've never had such problems. I suggest disassembling and checking out thermal paste.
- Installed on a late 2014 Mac mini

Using Linux Mint as Main OS on 2015 Macbook Pro
I am currently using Debian on my MacBook Air. The broadcom wifi card driver is not in the official repository so I had to use an external wifi dongle when first installing the OS. You might also encounter issues with the webcam, so this link might help. I am also using mbpfan to help with heating issues. Other than that, I haven't had any issues.
