So, that’s my reply to Chris Titus Tech’s listing. I mostly agreed but still, made my own.

      @cyclohexane @Lolors17 Gentoo can be fast if you configure it correctly. I’ve seen it done in the past…

        Yes. Gentoo is a metadistro - it gives you the tools to create your own Linux OS. However without binary package repository (which is something that Gentoo’s Portage system supports) your system updates will be as slow/fast as your computer can compile. For lightweight binary distro, I’d probably go with Alpine. I used Arch for a while, but it was too bleeding edge for me.

        That said, I’ve been using Gentoo for almost 20 years. I don’t use it for because it can be made fast, but because “Gentoo is the choice edition” and stable rolling releases.

    I’m not s fan of ranking distros. Choice in the GNU Linux ecosystem is a good thing. What works for one person does not necessarily work for all.

        It includes cinnamon which is mints in house DE, but all DEs can be installed on any distro. Mint is just Ubuntu with extra proprietary stuff. My point was that it’s weird to have them in separate arbitrary categories. Labeling Ubuntu as “Devil” and Mint as “Amazing” is odd when you realize they are the same.

          Mint has extra proprietary stuff? I’m gonna need a source on that one. Mint is the distro Ubuntu wants to be.

            It doesn’t seem like it differs that much from Ubuntu anymore in that regard tho.

          @borlax
          I think all the software added to Mint is open source but I can be wrong

            I thought they packaged some proprietary media codecs and drivers to make it more user friendly out of the box. I could also be mistaken about the status of those items.

    Slack as Supreme is nostalgia. At least your Fedora ranking is logical.

      I do agree. Slackware is a great distro but imho belongs to some kind of users

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
