I can’t even feel superior to everyone when theirs so many arch installers!! I use real arch btw. I thought “I guess I should go to Gentoo” but then wait, CHROMEOS IS A GENTOO INSTALLER!
I feel like we only have two options now
- Ascend to BSD-land
- Ironically supporting Windows Unironically
edit: I have decided to replace my debian laptop with BSD
NixOS. And be really annoying about declarative software environments
I had a FreeBSD niri setup that worked quite well for a bit. The jail-based containerd stuff was exciting, but not mature enough for my needs, so I had to leave it behind. Since then I’ve read lots of news about maturing wifi and ither improvements.
Graphics will always be behind, unforrunatrly; ZFS is starting to show its age too.
You could always switch to Slackware and be insufferable about it.
BSD ?
Temple OS?
ReactOS
UCSD p-system. Or VMS. Or Banyan-Vines.
Make your own, coward. No distro so niche as one that has half a user because it’s hardly usable.
BYoOS or gtfo
Is ReactOS still a thing?
It can even run some modern software! Nobody cares! Perfect for a hipster.
There is two other paths:
- Gnu herd
- Plan9
Abandon technology and become a farmer.
This is the actual answer btw
How about an Illumos (descendant of opensolaris) distro, such as openindiana
Woah I remember installing this once, half my coworkers are old sun employees who worked on it kernel dev for solaris and hearing them talk about it is cool
Exherbo is like the non-mainstream version of Gentoo.
Or you could do Artix and run it with s6 and musl, writing your own compatibility layers.
And if you really want to be unique, you can install LFS and use it as a daily driver after building the whole thing in rust 🤣
Go with Plan9, obviously
