  • I appreciate the big response, and definitely have to look into compiling and the build process, using git, more terminal centric applications, etc. I’ve seen that there is a distro to learn Linux that comes in stages, I don’t know what it’s called off the top of my head.

    Setting flags does seem very annoying, it’s hard for me to keep track of programs and settings already.




  • I have heard of Gentoo, but not Funtoo. I’m still fumbling my way through Arch but I will definitely make some VMs one day to see what it’s all about. From my understanding (correct me if I’m wrong please) Gentoo is like Arch but even more customization, everything has to be compiled from source.

    What is your experience with Gentoo, how would you describe it compared to Arch? Also I’ve seen FreeBSD as well and think it would be super nice for a server but not able to play games without difficulty due to fundamental differences to linux.

    That is true in the same way that Ubuntu is Debian. I prefer the base version where I can choose what’s necessary for me for resource management and troubleshooting purposes. I forget what it was, but there were a few issues where Endeavouros was not working properly and the Arch wiki solutions did not work for it, could have been my error as well at the time.
