Chromebooks are the answer to the question: “What’s the point of an operating system if I do everything through my web browser anyway? Why not make a computer that just opens a browser?”
Your choice of distro is probably less important than your choice of DE. Chromebooks vary quite a bit in their specs–many are low-end hardware, but some are quite impressive. With decent hardware, I’d recommend Mint with Cinnamon DE as a good starter. For lower specs, you could try Debian with XFCE.
