Installing linux (Debian) on a 2011 Intel mac mini

Apple have long stopped supporting the mid-2011 mac mini I had sitting in the living room, so rather than contribute to the e-waste problem I decided to stick linux on it. The general consensus seems to be that you should keep macOS bootable to make it easier to deal with any firmware issues down the line, so I wanted to set it up to dual boot. The documentation I was able to find on how to do this seemed scattered or out of date.

There are a number of little wrinkles to this process:

macOS quite reasonably assumes it'll be the only thing running on the machine; you need to install a boot manager to let you choose between macOS, linux, or whatever else. I went with rEFInd.
Something seems a bit off with the default video setup, such that when I first booted into Debian the screen went blank immediately after enabling kernel modesetting.
The mac mini wifi uses a Broadcom chipset with non-free drivers which you have to download separately. I s

Product management has come up with the idea of allowing website users to leave reviews and ratings for listings. This feedback will be entered similar to how leads are submitted, but the user must enter the following information:

name
email address
phone number
rating from 1 to 5
optional review

In addition to the above information, a CAPTCHA presenting three different apartment complexes (only one of which is correct) is used in conjunction with the user’s name and phone number to determine whether or not the user actually lived at the listing. After validating and verifying the information, the user gets redirected to a thank you page. After a review is successfully submitted, it will show up as the first entry in the reviews for the listing. Pre-existing “certified resident” reviews will be integrated along with reviews that are submitted through the site. On the search results page, users can sort on rating type or filter on review type and rating. A link on each listing will take the us
