I did jump onto Gentoo ship chasing performance, but stayed because of USE flags.
When CPUs were a lot slower you could genuinely get noticeable performance improvements by compiling packages yourself, but nowadays the overhead from running pre-compiled binaries is negligible.
Hell, even Gentoo optionally offers binary packages now.
Most of the reason to build your own packages is a form of runtime assurance - to know what your computer is running is 100% what you intend.
At least as a guix user that’s what I tell myself.
You know what was even faster? Switching to something easier like Fedora/Linux mint/Debian
Fedora/Linux mint/Debian
curious phrasing.
Now imagine the same meme but with Gentoo and LFS
I’ve been thinking about it …
Eventually you’ll come back to wanting a working easy to use system
I never tried gentoo cause i never liked the idea of compiling everything. I only compile if i have to because i always feel like it’s a waste of time in general. I have used NixOS for the past 6 months though, but i didn’t like how many issues it gave me when updating. Now i’m back on good old void linux.
“Tell me one last thing”, said Harry. “did i install Open BSD for real? Or has this business, the dual boot failure , both computers damaged, the sharks, all been happening inside my head?”
Dumbledore chortled at him, and his voice sounded loud and strong in Harry’s ears even though the bright ocean mist was descending again, obscuring his figure.
“Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?
OpenBSD is the easiest BSD to install and most things work right outside the box
I’m not even ready for Arch because I can’t make decisions for myself.
That’s easy, just pick btrfs, gnome, pipewire, systemd, gdm, grub, and add flatpak in your additional packages.
Every other configuration is wrong.

Newfangled bullshit! Choose ext2, twm, alsa, sysvinit, xinit, and compile additional software from source.
That’s unironically why I like Manjaro 😅
Try endeavoros, it’s an opinionated arch with a simple installer
