I have been using Arch for five years and I think I would like to call myself at least a progressive beginner when it comes to Linux, computers and networking, to be humble. 🤣
I would like to “move on” to Gentoo or LFS to force myself to learn more[1]. Please share your pros and cons for switching to any one of these approaches.
Use case: a gaming rig (using nvidia’s proprietary drivers and an AMD CPU) on one system and a server on a separate system.
This was my main incentive for switching to Arch a long time ago, and it worked! ↩︎


Yocto / Bitbake were inspired by Gentoo’s portage.
I used them when playing with zaurii (Zaurus PDA) and openmoko.
