imo the best thing on the raspberry pi is mint mate .. a minimal ubuntu, which works perfectly
Reforming
Larbs.xyz lmao I'm drunk
Odroid xu4 or just an onboard intel in a cube pc
Linuxmint for 2 months to learn how to use it then switch to Debian stable with KDE.
I almost did exactly the same. Ubuntu for six weeks then Debian stable. Been with it ever since.
Why Gentoo?
Anywhere you like. I installed it in my room but you could install it in your kitchen, bathroom, even your backyard if you have a long enough power cord
It was for my main pc but now on the topic of Pi's I heard it can run x64 gentoo.
Ubuntu unironically, grind it till you understand everything about linux then go to arch. That's the path I did and never had much problems to be honest.
"Install Gentoo" is a meme and Gentoo is one of the more advanced versions of Linux. The meme exists because if you learn to install Gentoo the theory is you can fix more or less any Linux problem.
