Slackware was my first love, but the reason I say Arch is because there's no package management

... though these days, Nix on top of Slackware may be interesting

I find Slackware easier to install.

There is slackpkg for package management, and sbopkg for “ports.” (What is “missing” is dependency management, which often turns out to be a blessing.)

(pkgsrc also supports Slackware.)
