What’s the appeal of purposely using a user unfriendly system? I’m a Linux beginner and I use easy to use distros. Just curious as to why torture yourself?
I wouldn’t say they are user unfriendly, just not fit for beginners. There are definite advantages to those distros for advanced users, as they offer way more customisation than beginner friendly distros.
Often its to learn about how a linux system works under the hood, also Gentoo can theoreticly have a small performance boost (tho on modern hardware its extremly small).
