Funtoo Linux is a Linux-based operating system that is a variant of Gentoo icon Gentoo.

The main differences to Gentoo would be:

no systemd support, but still allowing one to run, for example full desktop environment such as Gnome 3.20
portage tree split into kits that allow more fine grained control for package updates, and packages can be now tied together inside the kit to minimise dependency breakage while upgrading.
use flags that are suitable for a task or environment are grouped into Profiles, allowing to select for example gnome profile with most of the sane use flags enabled inside profile.
stage3 archive coming with compiled kernel based on Debian's kernel.
simpler template based network configuration.

Funtoo is quite slow in updating even the most important packages. Not good for my usage. Might be good for you...
