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

  1. Ascend to BSD-land
  2. Ironically supporting Windows Unironically

edit: I have decided to replace my debian laptop with BSD

    bitching on Gentoo because it is allegedly difficult to install

    Just earlier, I saw a tui installer for gentoo @ https://lemmy.wtf/post/13625402 , and doubtless many others out there in the wild (even my own from over a decade ago).

    And then there are things like CalculateLinux, and RedCoreLinux.

    But they’re a bit try-hard, and janky, especially RedCoreLinux.

    Gone are the days of Toorox or CloverOS, which were much more like just a straight nice plain desktop Gentoo out of the box with an easy installer.

    Then there’s the likes of DecibelLinux… handy if your thing is audio production. Stage4 Gentoo, fit for discovery of all the audio tools.

    Though of course, indeed, Gentoo’s not hard to install. Here’s the only gentoo install video you will ever need, and it’s less than 40 seconds long! Simples.

    DragonflyBSD

    I was just thinking of that, and HAMMER, when reading the BeOS & BeFS posts above.
