The only real issue with Arch forks is there’s a degree of extra friction with the AUR, which is one of the major selling points of Arch to begin with. Not that you can’t use it, but I also think my interest in playing “what fucked state is causing all my problems” has lessened a lot. That is, I think my patience only extends as far as the typical AUR experience and no more, currently.

So, maybe Gentoo it is?…

@ahelwer Trying to ditch SystemD and not sure I wanna go back to nixOS land in general, anyway. I found development work on nixOS to be... not my favorite times.

@ahelwer mostly because instead of doing the dev work I needed/wanted to do, I instead spent all my energy trying to get it all to work because Spite only to inevitably hit some wall of "yeah, that whole library stack assumes {typical POSIX file system} and..." and then by the time I got it working, I was too tired to do the thing.
