This is one reason I like Arch. It is almost as vanilla as can be (some exceptions may apply) while still being a "build it yourself Lego set" (build not in the compile sense).
- tombert 2y agoYeah, it's kind of hard to go back once you've embraced the "build your own distro" distros. Arch, Gentoo, and NixOS Minimal are all pretty wonderful in that they give you the tools to build whatever system you want, without a bunch of extra crap that you'll never use.
- JonChesterfield 2y agoWouldn't that be the opposite? I like the base userspace to be very boring, where broken things have been stumbled over and fixed before I run into them. Everyone having their own bespoke set of pieces makes the divergence between what you're running and what other people are running greater.
