Wake me when Gentoo is suddenly the hot new thing.

I was once the first to report a bug in the kernel. I’m still pretty proud of it.
God, I have days like this where I build a feature for a whole day nevrr compile in between as it is not done yet. Then run it and it just works.
The next day is spent in paranoia mode trying to write more and failing tests.
2-3 times in my career it happend that the tests never failed and I had just written complex code that worked on the first try.

Thankfully chromebooks are not a thing where I live.
We don’t. We can decide between binary packages and compiling.
This is not gonna happen.
Gentoo really has nothing to do with arch. Gentoo in my opinion is more like Debian with compiling and rolling release.
And what about Fedora? Last I checked it was wildly popular.
Urgh! Why did you choose Arch? It is just the worst!
Yeah, at least use Flatpac.
Urgh, we downgraded from Gentoo to Ubuntu.
My friend that runs arch constantly complains about a bricked system.
I only complain about long compile times.
I’m on Gentoo and I feel attacked.
Also I have no clue what SuSe is doing in the enligthenment part. I started with SuSe an thought it was cool, went back to it a few years later and realised that it was a steaming hot mess.
Really I’ve been running my Gentoo like a Debian, (mostly) all stable packages. It just never breaks, it keeps updating without issues year after year. The People that have issues with Gentoo are mostly having them because they try running lots of testing packages.
I tried running arch on my wifes computer and it is a mess that constantly breaks for no reason. She is on Manjaro currently and it is slightly better.
Since flatpak and Gentoo binary packages I have been floating the idea to switch her computer to a fully stable Gentoo and let her install applications through flatpak.
The author obviously never used half those distros.

2·4 months agoYeah, basically handling all the caveats is now automated and you can choose to use binary packages.

I always say: Its Windows, I have no clue how that might work.
