minus-squaregeoff@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-23 months agoI did Gentoo in my 20s when all I could afford was garbage computers. I enjoyed the experience — whether it did or not, it made me feel like I was getting the most out of whatever I had, and I learned SO much about Linux.
minus-squaremsage@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 months agoI wanted to try Gentoo to learn more about Linux and compiling. But that fucking distro just works, and compiling is so automatic I’m done in one command! I feel betrayed, but also very satisfied by the distro. Fuck binary blobs.
