Linux From Scratch is a way to install a working Linux system by building all components of it manually. This is, naturally, a longer process than installing a pre-compiled Linux distribution. According to the Linux From Scratch site, the advantages to this method are a compact, flexible and secure system and a greater understanding of the internal workings of the Linux-based operating systems.[5]
Tbh, that's a kinda boring question. Only total beginners will have a strong opionion. Everyone who's been around the block for a while knows that you use the right tool for the right job and also understands that people have different preferences.
If there really was a clear "best Linux distro" for all use cases, then there would not be Linux distros but one clear winner that everyone uses.
There's a bunch of good distros, there are enough lists of them, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. That's as far as you'll get with posts like this.
And it's quite plain to see that the crowd here is a bit more adult than the kids in the Linux subs on Reddit.
TBH it has not really been an issue for me. My biggest real beef is just that I prefer just having regular text files in /var/log instead of using journalctl. And I feel like it's a Microsoft-style monolith that flies in the face of the Unix philosophy that I honor and revere.
If it helps, you can turn that crap off and get log files, I need to do this on the homelab. But at work we setup syslog so that we can get Aws to ingest them, yes I know AWS and all that. Not my choice.

Well guys. He did say "/thread"
The rules are the rules.
I see that you too are a person of culture.
Clearly you've made a mistake by even getting onboard the distro train in the first place.

MacOS.
::: spoiler Tap for sarcasm /S :::
That's a BSD distro
I know
The one that works best for your use case.
The one you like better
WSL
anyone else roll their eyes at this one?
Uwuntu - https://uwuntuos.site/
Nyarch, of course.
Azure Linux, because why wouldn't you want Microsoft in your Linux? ^/s^
Personally I like SpywareOS
I like Debian, for the many ways to customize, adjust, and change settings
Asking the hard-hitting questions when no one else is brave enough
Are you looking to switch?
In general, though? Biebian: https://biebian.sourceforge.net/
Or Red Star OS: https://archiveos.org/redstar/
Depends if you are a systemd or openbox person.
Slackware is all anyone needs.
Arch, newest drivers and shit.

Nobara, user friendly, game ready, easy for windows plebs to pick up
Obviously ChromeOS. What's not to love about a web-only operating system?

Use any distro you like! Just make sure it is without systemd
Why? I mean I've read talking points for having systemd and for not. What's your take?
