For those of you who don’t know, Linux From Scratch is a project that teaches you how to compile your own custom distro, with everything compiled from source code.
What was your experience like? Was it easier or harder than you expected? Do you run it as a daily driver or did you just do it for fun?
You answered your own question.
Being fun does not make (thing) a necessity let alone useful – there are a lot of useless things that are fun.
Do you really need me to teach you that people do fun things as well as useful things?
A lot of people really don’t seem to understand fun. Or interesting. Or self actualisation. Everything is about money or reputation or something.
