In order to be able to Further configure my system, I am looking for a fork of my current OS (artix with openRC as init system) in which i am able to compile every package from source in order to Further configure it with make flags. I am currently not using gentoo, and because the packages in its default repos are only updated when necessary, and the break-my-gentoo repo is more of a joke than an actual replacement for arch. However, if someone can recommand me a repo with similar package updates as arch, I would be looking at installing gentoo.
Gentoo. Not an Arch fork, and uses OpenRC by default. I use it and love it. Best package manager or there, imo.
You can still get binaries of the really annoying things to compile, like Firefox. Otherwise, it’s all source-based.
Follow the handbook. https://www.gentoo.org/get-started/screenshots/
