SuSE Linux (a German distribution), some niche, single CD distrubution, Debian for a while and, finally, since ~2006, Gentoo on my servers and since ~2015 Gentoo as my desktop.
Debian and its derivatives never felt right for me. I find too many drawbacks with binary packages (non-configurable build options, therefore dependencies that can't be disabled, relying on humans to keep ABI compatiblity, trouble integrating my own packages or unstable versions) and I just don't like systemd.
It's weird, I've seen more than enough of those "Install Gentoo" memes, but I find it the most pleasant system to run in the long term.
I always preferred gentoos layouts over everyone else’s. I was a long time Sabayon user so other side of the house. Interested in trying out the Gentoo Binary’s here soonish
