I wanted to have a separate laptop where I only use the terminal for my use cases. At the moment I am somewhat confident using the terminal, but I think limiting myself to tty only would build my confidence even more. Any tips?

    I actually am using a manual Arch install. What i meant by gaining confidence is completely abandoning xorg and using the tty only.

      Look into terminal multiplexers like screen or tmux, they are a sort of “window” system for tty.

      There are text-only browsers but I’m not sure they’ll be usable on today’s websites. May want to set your tty to a graphical mode (framebuffer) and use a mixed-mode browser that can render images and some other stuff.
