Who here uses a less popular Linux distribution? What made you choose it?
Hey fellow Linux enthusiasts! I'm curious to know if any of you use a less popular, obscure or exotic Linux distribution. What motivated you to choose that distribution over the more mainstream ones? I'd love to hear about your experiences and any unique features or benefits that drew you to your chosen distribution.

I would love to use Slackware as a daily driver, but no package management OOTB makes me feel I am not worthy of using it. I believe third-party tools exist, so maybe I will use it at some point, but perhaps I'd be better served with Void for now

What do you use? What are some problems you have with Slackware?

How do you install packages without appropriate dependency resolution?
I didn't know about that. I should probably run it in a VM for a while before trying

Thanks. I'm probably going to install some software for IOT devices alongside the usual workstation stuff (vim, tmux, browsers, audio, git, htop, a WM with add-ons etc). I'll take a look at
slpkg.
