Having to use the wrong slash everywhere

I…I didn’t know you could request that…omg

Late reply, but I suppose you’re correct; I think the option to choose what to install, the lack of pre-created desktop stuff (“home/$username/Videos” for example) and the requirement that you handle software that isn’t in the base install all make a Slackware installation less bloated than most. Maybe not at install time, but over the life of the install you end up with less garbage IMHO.

If you hate bloat you like Slackware. It doesn’t assume anything about how you want to use your computer, so it’s more painful for a lot of folks. Other distros will try to do things for you and will ultimately end up doing something someone doesn’t want. With Slackware you learn a lot and you get a rock-solid system that will do whatever you like, but you have to be willing to manage it.
