Surely, Debian is "niche". Why else should there be a need for
distributions like Gentoo?
I once tried to run Debian, and asked for help on some probably
elementary question on the Debian users list. All I got in the way of
help was "read the f*ing manual". Sure, very helpful indeed. Later, I
installed Gentoo and was positively amazed at the level of help you
would get on the Gentoo-forum. I never looked back to Debian.
