I've installed arch Linux and liked it, but lfs and Gentoo would be too time consuming compiling everything and not doing anything during and after install. Are there any distros like arch that don't have me compiling everything?

LFS and Gentoo, you have to compile, sure... but Arch? You don't compile the kernel on vanilla Arch, if you mean packages, then just get the
*-bin
versions.Edit: misunderstood your post. What's wrong with Arch and Arch-based distros?
I phrased that wrong, I just edited it to reflect what I wanted to say.
Yeah sorry I misunderstood, have you looked into NixOS? It offers quite a different workflow. I use arch and there hasn't been a time where I wish I have it differently, except the occasional temptation to try Nix.
