And, however much momentum Ubuntu may carry by already being installed, it looks like it might be time to say goodbye. I noticed people mentioned Arch earlier... I want to try Arch, and I want to try Gentoo. Next? Possibly that fork of Debian for those people that didn't want blasted systemd on their system. Though, I will tolerate it for now.

May I ask exactly what is your problem with systemd?  It's only being adopted by everyone because it's better than sysvinit.  (Not to presume you fall into this category) I've seen a lot of people who dismiss it because of internet hate but actually know nothing about systemd, which in urn turns more people away.

EDIT: Again, not to presume you're uneducated, but in case there are people in this thread who are, the following reddit thread is rather enlightening:

How interesting, I've actually seen that reddit post before. I also believe that nobody even uses sysvinit at all anymore, which is why things like Upstart are around. Anyway...

I don't hate systemd. I should've made that clear before. I disagree more in philosiphy, (and I am also not a fan of the decision to stop developing udev seperately...), in that I would prefer something like runit or daemontools. However, the fact that I am still running Ubuntu shows how strong of an opinion I have. (Not very)

However, this news has made me more interested than usual in finding something else.

As for Gentoo? It's only frustrating when you're compiling by hand. So far as I know. But there is time needed.
