Minimalist and Linux noob, but also a masochist so I installed Arch.

"Minimalist"
> installs KDE plasma
We have different definitions of minimalist
I probably would have gone with Xfce since this is mostly acting as a server but this was also my first real experiment to see if I could replace a Windows desktop with Linux so I wanted some more functionality in that regard.
You should look into window managers such as dwl if you want a truly minimalist experience.
Plasma used to be bloated, but now is very similar to XFCE in terms of resources, and if you don't use Akonadi or Baloo, you get something even more minimal.
