If you're looking for a Linux distribution with a perfect blend of 
usability and customization, MX Linux might do the trick.

MX Linux is currently listed as the most downloaded Linux distribution 
on Distrowatch. This might come as a surprise to a lot of people, 
especially given it ranks above Linux Mint, Pop!_OS, and Ubuntu. For 
those who've never heard of MX Linux, it's based on Debian's stable 
branch as a cooperative venture between antiX and what's left of the 
MEPIS Linux communities. With Xfce as its default desktop (you can also 
download spins with either the KDE Plasma or Fluxbox desktops), it's a 
user-friendly, fast operating system that is a great option for those 
new to Linux and even those with years of skill under their belt.

One aspect of MX Linux that appeals to me is that the flagship version 
(Xfce) looks and feels like old-school Linux but with just enough 
modernity to make it a viable option for today's users.

Its focus is ease-of-use and high performance. If you want an even more 
modern interface, you can choose the KDE Plasma version. You can go 
with the Fluxbox edition if you need to eke even more performance out 
of your system...
