Why haven't you made your own distro yet, /g/?

Why haven't you made your own distro yet, /g/?
>>
>>51638545
Because I don't see a reason why I should.
>>
>>51638545
Why would I need to when I have distros that work just fine?
>>
>>51638566
>just werkz

fuck off winfag
>>
>>51638545
Hmm, let's see... probably because:
1) I'm not autistic
2) I somewhat value my time
>>
because we don't need another shitty linux distro.
>>
>>51638545
Because a "distro" means I have to maintain and distribute it for other people to use it, and I don't give a shit about doing that.

>not doing it for learning experience
If you valued your time you wouldn't be here browsing inane comments.
>>
>>51638545
I did. I called it GNU/Linux Gentoo.
I'm sure it is quite well known around here.
FÂM

>>51638643
If we stop making distros it will never be the year of the gnu/linux desktop.
>>
>>51638768
There are much more worthwhile programming projects than reinventing the wheel for the 6000th time. At least I'm not the one starting shitty bait threads
>>
I am mostly done creating my LFS but I don't have time or energy to finish it right now. Hopefully I'll finish it up during Christmas.
>>
>>51638831
Yeah like a fizzbuzz :^)

>>51638930
Nice!
>>
>>51638545
I've been thinking about making my own as an education experience for sometime. I've already did a full gentoo install and would love now to try LFS.
>>
>>51638815
Gnu + linux
>>
>>51638545
If I wanted a hobbyist OS I might. But I just need something that will run every program I need, so I use Windows.
>>
>>51639343
what programs do you run that you require windows?
>>
>wants to reinvent the wheel
>>
>>51638561
So you don't respect your freedoms

finnaly someone sees the power of lfs

>>51639353
MeGUI w/ QAAC. uTorrent 2.2.1. MPC-HC. Muh games.

>>51638545
I'll get to making a logo
>>
>>51639446
I'll synergize it
>ITT start up thread #2

>>51638545
working on it

>There are much more worthwhile programming projects than reinventing the wheel for the 6000th time.
and has anyone on /g/ ever actually done one?

I've never seen a single interesting project on this site except maybe that one guy who was using youtube videos to store his backups for some retarded reason.
>>
>>51638545
Because Slackware already exists.
>>
>>51642409
Patrick is that you?
>>
> plebs using lfs
> not writing your own kernel

Stay pleb
>>
Because I get enough customizability out of Arch or Gentoo
>>
Why haven't you made your own architecture, processor, hardware, EFI, microkernel, and userland? Fucking retards.
>>
>>51638643
Basically. It'd be more worthwhile to contribute to something already exists and is worthwhile, or just go and write everything from the ground up to build a better mousetrap than Linux. If you don't have an innovative design that can blow the current paradigm out of the water, don't bother reinventing the wheel when you can improve wheels that already exist.
>>
>>51638545
https://github.com/install-logos/logos
>>
>>51638545
Because I'm making my own CPU architecture and kernel instead.
>>
I create my own local gentoo overlays. That's about as close I will ever get.
