Most Linux distros these days are based on just three Linux distros. Debian, RHEL, or Arch. Meaning, that a lot of Linux distros are going to be mainly the same besides the desktop and what packages that they get. However, there are still some completely independent Linux distros that have their own package managers and code. I am going to go over 5 of my favorites, and providing a brief explanation as to what makes them unique.
As gentoo user running systemd…I think it’s a bit oversimplified to say gentoo doesn’t use systemd. Gentoo comes with profiles for systemd and openrc so I would say both are supported. And on a personal level I dislike the comparison to arch as both distro’s hardly share any overlap in target audience (But I think the article compares them on the one thing they have in common…gui less install)
Also kind of misses one elephant in the room…openSuSE.
