Are there any operating system designed to be as distraction free as possible?

Without internet access, as few programs as possible and with a layout that is designed to be boring.

    You can configure NixOS to have as little or as much as you want by setting the right options. Arch allows customising to a similar level but that’s less… configuring and more installing things and tweaking stuff here and there.

      10000 options whoa. Is there a howto you’d recommend for navigating those? Or maybe an example config if I want the experience limited to a text editor and an nfs mount.

        The default configuration generated by nixos-generate-config is a good starting point. From there you can probably find more things to disable or trim down. environment.systemPackages and environment.defaultPackages for example are lists you can make very short.
