What exactly is minimalism?

That's the challenge of design. You have to figure out what the client really wants.

Base it on this, if you think an idea is too complicated it probably is. Don't use crazy abstract type faces, don't use an excessive amount of color, dont try to draw something complex for the icon (if there is even an icon at all and it's not just text based)

If you get stuck, use google for inspiration. Don't over think, you'll be fine.

>If I was your client, and I came up to you and said, "I want a logo that's minimal," what would you do?
ask more questions instead of relying on some subjective phrase

Minimalism in graphics terms means simple, clear, and iconic.

As in, the McDonalds logo is minimalistic whereas Burger Kings is not.

>What the hell even is minimalism, anyway?
Not /gd/ related but I like Brian Eno's take on it

It was all about being non-intrusive, music you could ignore for a long time, sudenly realize it's there, think it's neat and forget about it again
