And putting effort into adding every feature you need makes me appreciate it even more. I don't mean to say that humans derive value from suffering, but looking back at some of the headache and seeing that they are mostly solved now gives me this cool peace of mind. Plus, if anything breaks I know how to solve it. It is akin to moving from some batteries included distro like pop_os to arch. Nothing against pop, it is a wonderful effort, but reading through the documentation and putting your distro together gives you way more insight into the inner workings which is invaluable for when it breaks.
