Distraction free operating system (lemmy.ml)

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.

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.
