I labeled some of the lesser known logos. The criteria are arbitrary and I made this based on how much I liked using it.

Note that Fedora Sway Atomic isn't bad, but I had a bad experience because I was trying to install NIri on it and it clearly wasn't meant for that. Basically, it's just not for me.

I wanted to rank Manjaro low because I heard bad things about it, but I think I used it for like a few minutes because I wanted to try Gnome, and I didn't like Gnome after trying it and didn't want to deal with uninstalling all the Gnome stuff manually, so I just hopped to another distro.

Void and NixOS in S tier is based, my two favorite distros. Because of me using void though i kinda miss using Runit when i want to use a declaritive system like nix. I'm working on a gnu guix config in a vm now to see if i can use that as an alternative instead. It's not runit per se, but who knows, maybe i'll still like shepherd better than systemd.

Yep. Void's been surprising me for over a decade, since it was still "new", at how well kitted out it is, and what a joy of simplicity and cleanliness it is. Rarely any hunting down the superfluous complexity of a package's name-extra-words-after-the-program-name. A real joy. Very few complaints. Big love for VoidLinux.

PS, Runit is niiiiice. :)
