Sup Forums is living a lie, no one here even uses linux

When will /Clang+Musl+Libressl/ happen?

most likely never, it would be too useful

Like there is anything to discuss about Gentoo.

Fuck yeah portage! OMG I love portage... wew portage.

but muh USE flags

I'm already doing it senpai

H-how?
There are officially mantained libressl and musl overlay and unmerged clang profile pr.
But how to use these altogether?

Name one ebuild you created.
Protip: you can't.

Arch user here.

Convince me to switch to Gentoo.

Does anyone here has working distcc?

Gentoo only breaks if you're retarded, take your down syndrome back to arch linux.

Install Gentoo image on Orange Pi PC.
USB errorrs on boot if keyboard plugged in.
Have to unplug and replug to login.
Cannot get driver for my wifi adapter.
Shutdown causes kernal panic and fails to disconnect power.
Utterly discouraged, install Fugbuntu..
I am no longer a Gentooman

enjoy your broken xorg.conf lmao

I absolutely agree.

It's pretty easy. I have a few in my local overlay.
I do use distcc. What do you want to know?
