soooooooooooooooo am I installing Gentoo or that SystemD-less arch fork (Artix?) this weekend orrr
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?…
