Been meaning to do a blog drilling down the Linux levels:
Level 0 There are other x86 OSes?
Level 1 GNOME sure does look pretty (Ubuntu)
Level 2 What... is this for, anyway? (Mint)
Level 3 Oh, it's for privacy and independence (Android, AOSP, non free kernels)
Level 4 OK, then, let's build it ourselves (LFS)
Level 4.5 You can't (hardware blobs)
Level 5 Er that was a lot of work (Gentoo)
Level 6 Wait WTF is systemd (Arch)
Level 7 Bleh, pacman doesn't have a gui (Manjaro)
Level 8 Wait, Ubuntu is based on what? (Release schedules, Arch vs Debian)
Level 9 WTF is a userland? OSX is based on what? (Alpine) (MIT. BSD. GNU. RMS. FSF. LLVM.)
