I'm not good enough to give recommendations, but meanwhile some questions might make it easier. What is your budget? Is open source important to you? What's the biggest thing you want to print? Are there any special features you're looking for? Do you want to tinker with it or rather have it "just work"?
I'm genuinely worried sometimes that a Ken hack has been introduced. I don't know by who, but possibly some government agency. Then again, we also have a Minix system built into the CPU doing god knows what and we just accept that.
I agree that there is beauty in simplicity. In my opinion, OpenBSD has the best website.
It's not about using fancy effects, it's about the sprawling logical layout and making it hard to navigate. It used to be better around 2005, when it had the left navigation index. I remember people said it was ugly then, but imho they changed the wrong aspects of it, removing the structure without adding simplicity.
For example, a new user reading this page https://l10n.debian.org/ will be confused. It only makes sense to me since I've already translated a bunch of debconf-po-files. These are my opinions, but you are welcome to disagree. Also, please don't hit people with rolled up newspapers, it's rude.
There are options to start at any level you feel comfortable with. In the far end of not installing anything is Linux From Scratch. As the name implies, you start from nothing. I don't recommend this unless you have specific reasons. If you want a small command line only system to start from there's plenty of those, many distros offer this choice. Arch, Debian, etc.
Afaik, no. Worth mentioning is that the fundamental design of the major BSDs is to clearly separate the core OS from third party applications. But as far as just being able to use Flathub or similar, I don't think so. If any BSD has experimented in that direction my bet would be FreeBSD.
This is the reason I keep an OpenBSD system around. Maybe it's a false sense of security, but I feel that they are pickier about the base system at least.
EBGaramond (original Duffner version) was made with fontforge and is on github. He only keeps the source and related files on github with instructions how to generate the otfs etc.
