By the way, I use

a lightweight and flexible Linux® distribution that tries to Keep It Simple. — Arch Linux1

The Arch Linux principles2 render it an ideal foundation for fine-tuning a system to personal needs. Though this requires using the command-line interface and get involved with technology details, you are one step closer to know your system inside out.

⚠️
From my experience Arch Linux is not a beginner’s choice. For this reason, you may consider Manjaro, which is based on Arch Linux. For certain use cases Ubuntu Studio (Pro audio), Kali Linux (Pentesting and IT security evaluation), or Tails (Privacy and activism) are better options.

Use the pagination link below the foot notes to get started following the guides of my installation and system setup or directly navigate to topics of interest by using the sidebar links. As of Multimedia and web the guides focus more specific use cases briefly described in the following.
