I’m wondering what the current favorite distros are besides the most popular ones like Arch, Debian and Fedora.

    I’m trying out OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on a few personal servers as I wait for Slowroll, I want to get back to trying to get Gentoo running, and I should check out Guix as a server in a VM.

    Gentoo having a binary option should help since I seem to mess up the kernel part of the installation.

      dist-kernel for gentoo is even better. Kernel from source but the distribution give a config that works for most. Then if you still want to change something you can patch it. It is wonderful.

      I use the bin kernel. I don’t change anything that is kernel level, so the default is fine. It cuts down on updates and install by a lot, but more important is that it’s stable. I personally love gentoo, it’s my favorite and I’ve tried basically everything.
