  • I've been using Source Mage for about a year now! It's a source-based distro like Gentoo. It's magic themed, so instead of repositories we have grimoires, and instead of packages we have spells :) my main reason for using it is because I tried it out a few years ago and the magic themed intrigued me. Eventually I decided to write some of my own spells (some important programs were missing that I wanted) I found them a lot easier to parse than gentoos ebuilds personally. But after I'd been sending PRs for a few months, I got added to the team as an official maintainer!

    it's a really fun distro to use, if not a bit hard to get up-and-running (only tarball-based install, we used to have ISOs but they're out of date for now) I've put a lot of work into getting it how i like it, i enjoy the tinkering aspect of it :) its fun
