Debian Testing with XFCE. When I need Wayland (for testing my app), i use Sway.

  1. Performance. I'm stuck with an old computer right now.
  2. No reliance on quirky black-box packages. It is less 'wrapped' unlike Mint, and more 'wrapped', unlike Arch. Compared to Arch (btw), Debian has some distro-management apps, like update-alternatives and synaptic. Also, it breaks less often, provided the system is used properly.

Also, I use Debian Stable on a VPS, because you don't want to sacrifice security to bleeding edge.
