I’m looking for a Debian based distro that has the same install process as arch. I hate bloated distros and haven’t been able to find anything yet. Anyone know of a distro like this?

    Dude are you joking? I don’t need a graphical file manager for example. That’s bloat. If not having a graphical file manager causes nvidia drivers to not work, there’s a major issue. I don’t want anything but a terminal and a browser.

      Look into .xinitrc and startx. You can run a standalone window manager and you can use xbindkeys to define keyboard shortcuts to launch a terminal or other apps, and you can also bind keys to wmctrl actions or run autokey in the background for the more fancy window and workspace operations. (if the window manager doesn’t support them).

      If you want a system tray, application menu and so on there are hybrid window managers like OpenBox that double as a super-lightweight DE.
