yeah, I loved it when I had the time for it. I used it on several machines as my daily driver back in the day. I can remember getting a new Thinkpad for work and deciding on Arch over Gentoo given the relative time commitment... then the disaster with the Gentoo wiki happened shortly thereafter and I've not run it since. I'm running Fedora Silverblue at the moment. glad you're carrying the torch!

only if you're drunk

I haven't used Gentoo in maybe 15 fifteen years or so but it was definitely the funnest to use

I'm over twenty years deep. I had a friend who was always my go-to for technical problems with my windows laptop. He ended up becoming a technical support guy for windows shops. anyways, he mentioned Linux one day as I was babbling about file sharing during the Napster days. I went down the rabbit hole from there. I've been called a systems administrator, server administrator, systems engineer, DevOps engineer, etc as job titles. it clicked in my head how or why it worked and it felt liberating. I'm the grumpy guy scowling trying to figure out how your windows or Mac operating systems work like how normal people are trying to figure out how mine works.
