  • Pick a rolling release distribution with a limited number of opinionated choices. Arch is a good one. Void is another (although far less main stream).

    Ubuntu is very non-modular and highly opinionated, probably avoid that.

    I recommend XFCE over LXDE, it’s probably a better compromise in terms of what you’re looking for.

    So, my advice:

    1. Install endeavourOS (or arch directly if so inclined)
    2. Choose xfce at install time
      • you may install gnome and then xfce over the top of you like
      • you may also like KDE plasma, but try to avoid a mix and match with gnome/xfce and KDE, you’ll find some theming etc will be a nuisance
    3. Keep it up to date.
