The distro family trees are like different pantheons.

Distros are like individual gods. Community developers are priests and end-users are the commoners who pray for blessings, good fortune, and happy lives. Priests direct the prayers of commoners to their respective gods.

There is the Debian pantheon, ancient gods of peace and stillness.

The Arch pantheon, progressive gods that bring revolution along with a bit of chaos.

The Red Hat pantheon, gods tha- wtf am I writing?

      I mean, if you know how to install arch and if you know more than basic command line. Gentoo is not hard you just need patience to compile everything. I installed it and still consider myself a linux beginner. I mean I know more than linux beginners but still far from power users like mental outlaw and luke smith.

        Thanks for the tip, I also consider myself a linux begginer. I started with arch (without arch-install). I’ve borked enough installations to not be a complete noob. So I guess I could try installing gentoo.
