Suggest a distro

Looking for a different experience on a new extra laptop. My gaming pc runs arch, tinkering thinkpad runs gentoo, touchscreen laptop runs nixos, a bunch of vm's in proxmox cluster running fedora, mint, ubuntu server, rhel based stuff, you name it. I am looking for something fun to build onto a Dell laptop, preferrably different in nature to stuff I already got. Tried Fedora, Ubuntu, Arch, Endeavour, Mint, Gentoo, NixOS, unsure if I am forgetting one or three now.

I like to make minimal builds but also battery efficient. I was considering Void but as it is discontinued, I dropped that thought (or better said, abandoned?). Alma doesn't really reel me in, idk. Quite a lost cause.
