So, I've been using Unix-like OSes and GNU/Linux for over a year and a half, and Debian for over a year. I've delved into Gentoo before, but eventually migrated back to Debian. I'm considering switching distros, and I don't really know what to go for. I'm currently considering going back to Gentoo, or giving Slackware or FreeBSD a try. I've heard Arch has improved, is it worth trying in its current state?

Basically ITT: Distro fanboyism at its extreme (within forum rules) to help me pick a distro.
