What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?

I've been using Linux Mint since forever. I've never felt a reason to change. But I'm interested in what persuaded others to move.

Gentoo all the way since 20 years, on all kind of devices, going strong and never looked back.

Ubuntu, I hate you. A messy complex windows-esque caricature in the Linux world, where "somebody else" knows better than me and shoves it down my gully.

So there you go, my best and worst distros choice.

I've only got a few years on Gentoo - how has your journey been? You must've started with stage 1!

Well, yes, stage3 has been a revolution. But I don't remember using stage1 directly. I started with Linux way earlier than gentoo... On 386.
