I'm using GNU/Linux systems as normal user since several years. Ubuntu, Fedora, Manjaro... I tried every distro that is user friendly, but I want to learn more deeply about GNU/Linux, like doing almost everything from the terminal, building packages and so.

What do you reccommend /g/entlemen?

Check out a book called Unix Made Easy. It's old and hard to find but the best book on the subject

You have basically two options going from Ubuntu:

Install Gentoo from the handbook(AMD64):
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64

Go deeper and do it from scratch:
http://linuxfromscratch.org/

Personally I think the second method is harder, but mostly tedious and you don't really learn anything extra. Arch is also an option but I hear a lot of bad things about its package manager. Also if you have the option, do it on a laptop instead of a desktop

Try something like Void Linux or Alpine Linux. They both are very minimalistic linux distros without being sadistic.

Slackware is good too, but it doesn't have dependency resolution: basically, when you install a package, you'll need to install all of its dependencies manually.

And then of course there are distributions where you do everything from scratch: Gentoo, Funtoo, Source Mage, LFS, etc.

Personally, I would recommend Void Linux: it's like an even more minimalist arch and it's also closer to a *BSD (OpenBSD more than anything else). It makes it easy to tinker with it.

Try Manjaro

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
