From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

GNU Guix is the only other one I know about besides the ones you listed.
Guix is interesting, but I need to use proprietary Nvidia drivers to play games and it goes against Guix nature.
@JustMarkov @OneRedFox it’s against GNU recommendations, but the nature of open source is about modifications, adaptations, improvements and sharing… and so there is the non-gnu channel.
While true, there is the nonguix repository that packages both the proprietary Nvidia driver and Steam. Otherwise, you're probably better off going back to regular distributions based on the others that you've ruled out thus far.
There's the non guix channel which can be added very easily to guix! :)
