running linux on old spor twatches

did anyone try to run linux on old sport watches? I have an old garmin vivoactive 4 that I am about to retire because of a lot of issues with it, and I am wondering if I am able to just replace the os into linux? maybe it would solve some of the issues I have with the watch (for example, shutdown when the watch needs to vibrate because of possibly corrupt drivers, spotify needing to connect to the internet every few days even though I want to use it offline and have spotify premium), or it may be just a fun experiment/ project.
anyway I would love to hear if anyone has any experience with this or something similar

I think the random shutdown issue when vibrating is due to a failing battery. It might be an r/spicypillows kinda situation.
