Gentoo or LFS? (programming.dev)

I have been using Arch for five years and I think I would like to call myself at least a progressive beginner when it comes to Linux, computers and networking, to be humble. 🤣

I would like to "move on" to Gentoo or LFS to force myself to learn more^[This was my main incentive for switching to Arch a long time ago, and it worked!]. Please share your pros and cons for switching to any one of these approaches.

Use case: a gaming rig (using nvidia's proprietary drivers and an AMD CPU) on one system and a server on a separate system.

I've been gaming with Steam on Arch without issues for a few years now, occasionally applying some popular Steam command tweaks as can be seen on protondb. My question is rather, after a days consideration, could I achieve the same gaming experience with another init system than systemd, such as I can have on for instance Artix or Gentoo, provided I install all the other dependencies for Steam and drivers for nvidia. 🤔
