gentoo users, why did you do it?
because i patch a lot of things, and using a binary distro sucks for that purposeon top of that, i use architectures not supported by the majority of distros at alli basically have no other choice
>>108618295what archs do you run
>>108618332ppc64 big-endian
>Arch
arch and gentoo are filled with trannies.both are dogshit filled with mentally ill people.
>>108618777>arch and gentoo are filled with trannies.>both are dogshit filled with mentally ill people.and then what is the solution, retard?(besides OpenBSD and other niche os)
>>108618777
>>108618348Fetch needed
>>108618814you must go to debian and be 2 years behind everything on an old worn out gnome
>>108618944
I tried gentoo, but I hate compiling software unless necessary. That's why I stayed on arch.Wait the question was the other way around, sorry I'm leaving.
If you're already gonna have to do everytjomg, you might as well benefit from -Ofast and -march=native
>>108618777the digies gentleman, they never lie.
>>108618219ppc32
>>108618219old pc i use for distrohopping/testing takes billions of years to compile anything and im not gonna hop on anything with my main machine before testing it out
>>108618777checked but seriously where did you get the impression Gentoo users are trannies. Tbh even with Arch the fat gamer meme is more accurate than trannies, but Gentoo users are exclusively neckbeards and Schizo's. Void and Nix are half chud half tranny. The true tranny Distro is Chimera Linux. Made by a tranny with the worst logo and color scheme you can imagine, uses dinit but they aren't anti-systemd and it uses gnome by default. The Reddit for Chimera is painfully Reddit.
Why do you retards care about who uses what like some playground toddlersWhy does it matter if there are trannies using arch, it does its job and that's it you don't have to ever interact with anything except the manual.
>>108618219I was still very new to this whole Linux thing and compiling AUR software was fun. Even wrote my own (rly basic) AUR helper. Didn't take me long to consider going full source-based on Arch, but it seemed like a lot of work. So I installed Gentoo.>>108618777Nah, Gentoo userbase is largely non-binary.
>>108618714I hate jews.
>>108618219Installing Gentoo is the obvious progression from Arch, specifically if you get into "lower" programming languages like C and you start reading the source of foss projects and making your own modifications, at first you start using AUR, then it's not enough and you start making your own PKGBUILDs, then your realize that you are fighting against the design of Arch (which is binary-first) and when you hear about Gentoo (which has all that Arch has and more and it's source-first) and how much better ebuilds are it's the natural choice to switch.>>108618777>mentally ill peopleLeast obvious projection.
>>108621737Arch are politically motivated idiots:>>108622213
>>108622592everybody is politically motivated. are you new here? torvalds fired russians and destroyed work because muh war, i'm feeneesh, please understand. imagine paying attention to what is essentially celebrity gossip. just pick a distro and fucking use it
>>108618295this basicallyarch doesn't have as much flexibility gentoo hasthey're not the same
>>108618219shit break vsshit not break
>>108618777This affects you how?
>>108618219Slackware 15.0 took too long to come out and by the time it did I was already settled in.
>>108622616>just pick a distro and fucking use it-picked Linux-can't use Linuxthat's why we avoid politically motivated idiots, such as Torvalds and Linus (and use BSD), or for cases where we need a Linux then we find least politically motivated one
>>108618219I just wanted a systemd free experience. It is pretty nice ngl
I quite literally fell for the meme. Three very good years until python decided to shit the bed, at which point I got lost in a sea of cryptic portage messages. Then I didn't update until my computer died two years later, and I installed fedora on the new one because who cares.
Why does Arch even exist?What sort of problem does it propose to solve?
>>108623262There is nothing that isn't politically motivated anymore. Blame the USA for spreading their retarded culture war political circus onto other countries.
>>108623528it's meant to be a simple distro to test bleeding edge software
>>108623554How does that differ from Gentoo?
>>108623243-current exists you know
>>108623550>There is nothing that isn't politically motivated anymore. Blame the USA for spreading their retarded culture war political circus onto other countries.political circus, the commies/socialists vs normal people, and various others, is going on in all countries.USA added their weird shit with questioning what a man or woman is. but that's not that new to have this wars.Despite that, we should ignore differences for things such as software devel.
>>108623577different package management philosophy + systemd without cope
>>108622616Total retarded misinformation on the firing Russians for "muh war". Actually read into this shit you retard. I swear we live in an age where almost ALL information that is objective is available and people will instead regurgitate whatever they hear some content creator say. Please fucking kill yourself.
>>108618714thats how i imagine that gentoo anime/avatar fag to look like.
>>108620618dinit is half chud half tranny also, it's just the chuds are on artix while the trannies use chimera
>>108623577lol, how big a spoon u need?
>>108624011The whole point of Slackware is to park your ass on the stable release and forget that updates even exist for months at a time. It's all the fun of Debian Stable but without the horseshit.
>>108623528It works on my machine.It solves the problem of what OS I should use.
>>108618219idk I went to Void
>>108618777Arch is transgenderGentoo is femboy
>>108618219systemd and pulseaudio
