Lubuntu, which is Ubuntu plus LXDE.

Ubuntu for the up-to-dateness (relative to debian) and stability. If I want something more up to date I can use a ppa if it exists, or pip, or compile. Mostly I take what's there and I'm fine.

LXDE for the minimalism. It's just windows and a panel, none of the Unity drama.

Canonical recently seems to be emphasizing Canonical (which is their right), so I'll likely go to Debian; LXDE will make the desktop part all but a non-event.
