incredible flexibility of Portage

Exactly.

I know people running systemd AND OpenRC on their Gentoo installs. Gentoo is a metadistro. It gives you the tools to build your own distro. SO in comparison to LFS, Gentoo is pretty similar. It’s just the tools that differ (although one can use Portage with LFS…)

Gentoo gives you a thorough course in Linux fundamentals

I basically learned everything Linux related from using Gentoo.

I can’t imagine why someone would want both init systems; that’s awesome.

I also know few cases of runit+OpenRC.

IIRC one of those support having an external service manager…

There are also few s6 users. I’ve kepts things quite simple with OpenRC+openrc-init.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
