Should I use Arch or Gentoo?
I'm currently using Xubuntu but I want a little more freedom. I'm not an expert with Linux but willing to learn a bit but nothing that'll give me tons of issues

Debian netinst with no DE selected or Gentoo

Arch. The use case for gentoo is very narrow and there are few benefits to tiny custom kernels. Arch gives a lot of choice with less autism. That said, it can be a great way to learn the ropes before jumping ship to Gentoo if you do decide to go with that.
Daniel Robinson
Install Artix tho

Jace Butler

Jose Price
debian
Camden Scott
install gentoo
Matthew Harris
gentoo since you wont have to use systemd
Dylan Myers
install gentoo
Noah Sanders
If you have to ask what OS to use, the answer is Kubuntu.
Dylan Wright
Go for straight Gentoo. Arch forces you to use systemD. While Gentoo is difficult to install at first, any issues go away when you have finally installed it.
Jackson Anderson
What's wrong with systemd?
Levi Taylor
Just use minimal ubuntu + i3 and rice the shit out of it.
Jaxon Fisher
It's large.
Mason Thomas
Gentoo forces openrc instead
Benjamin Rodriguez
Custom kernelled ubuntu is hella fast and responsive

you have the option to use systemd on gentoo, but i dont understand why anyone would actually use it
Elijah Richardson
Neither.
Why would you jump straight to those meme distros?
If you're familiar with Ubuntu but you want more freedom, just go with Debian.
Luis Gomez
Why such hate to systemd. It just works for any desktop user like us!
Ian Gonzalez
Arch - you can always try Gentoo afterwards.

Install Gentoo.

It doesn't. You can switch to systemd during installation very easily. Besides, a system has to be a standard init, and Gentoo is one of the few popular distributions where it isn't systemd.
Jonathan Long
Any init system just werkz for the average desktop user, that's the point. However, without systemd, you avoid all the bugs and bloat it brings.
Christian Wright
but what about runit? openrc and systemd are both garbage which means gentoo is shit
Evan Roberts
What operating system do you use?
Jose Russell
what has that got to do with anything?
Dominic Rivera
Runit is also included in the official Gentoo repos.
Ian Green
yeah so what? does gentoo actually ship runit scripts with their daemons? any brainlet can install runit on any distro
Charles Hall
but you said you didn't want any conveniencies or features?
Brody Evans
where did i say that?
Grayson Carter
Honestly just kill yourself at this point, dude.
Asher Smith
