Been daily driving NixOS on and off for like 2 years now, its nice with pretty good documentation all things considering. it’s a learning curve and a half but it feels nice not having to look up where some random config is
All time favorite is probably gentoo. It has a nice and active community, you learn a lot about the linux kernel, its made out to be much more difficult than it really is. As long as you don’t have an ancient computer compilation times arent that bad
Absolutely agree, it’s a very steep learning curve but once it clicks it’s hard to go back to the old. It’s good on the desktop but I started running it on my server recently and I can’t stress how nice it is to just see everything in one place, especially with nix flakes. It’s been difficult with some stuff like running firefish (formerly calckey) but it’s hard to come by services that don’t have good support
