First time installing Linux? What the fuck is this Ubuntu shit, that distro sucks. You really should try out Gentoo as your first distro.
Can't believe I fell for that as a kid. Wasn't even my first distro, but Gentoo for beginners is just hilarious
Gentoo is the final boss of Linux installs. (Linux From Scratch is the raid boss)
I installed it last year. After watching it compile for half an hour, I decided that a source-based distro was something I have no interest in daily-driving.
I've been daily driving Gentoo for 15+ years, and even I can't tackle that raid boss
I think someday I’ll do a gauntlet of Linux installs back to back. Start easy: Ubuntu - Debian - Arch - Nixos - Gentoo - LFS. Not sure if I put Nixos right though. Tbf I’ve already done Debian so maybe I’ll start with Arch.
