I’ve installed arch Linux and liked it, but lfs and Gentoo would be too time consuming compiling everything and not doing anything during and after install. Are there any distros like arch that don’t have me compiling everything?

true,
--substitute falsewill compile all dependencies, down to the compiler itself, but a simple (/s)nix-build " " [package] --checkwill compile just the chosen package, skipping dependencies, and compare it against the cached binary in the repo to ensure they’re equivalent.
I could have gotten that nix-build command slightly off as I’m typing this from memory. I am also saying most of this in jest as they aren’t really solutions to anything mentioned above and I moreso find them interesting features.
