The beloved lightweight distro

founded 4 years ago

I feel my system is perpetually bloated, and try to maintain what applications I have installed but always seem to veer off into new applications or python modules and what ever else.

Just wondering how does one keep a lean daily use system?

when software is sluggish to respond.. like a modern browser with 100 heavy js tabs open. esp when it crashes or freezes.
otherwise.. its hard to be unhappy with a simple self-configured WM(not a "batteries-included fancy DE). and preferably a very simple diy distro.

difficulty in fixing problems is a more relevant issue.
