I was wondering since I moved from Linux Mint to Debian, everyone said it's more for advanced users, it's barebones, it needs lots of adjusting....etc.

But I'm the contrary, my codecs where there and worked. It was more stable and intuitive. I only had to plugin my store to the flat hub. Nothing much I did of tinkering than I did in Mint.

The netinst CD would be the closest to barebones? Most of the Live installers come with graphical DEs and a slew of useful packages preinstalled nowadays.

Use netinst or the full dvd image they're barebones plus expert install. Live installers are sneak peek of DE what looks like.
