What is your reason for not using Gentoo?

What is your reason for not using Gentoo?

Is it because you enjoy having security faults in your system?

maybe its because im not a fuckin nerd lol

because mint just works

using a distro other than debian or ubuntu is retarded

Because I use openbsd

No I actually use RHEL you dumb nigger

Because Xubuntu is still unmatched.

I am using gentoo user, it's great.

I want to use my system
not waiting it to compile chrome

Chrome is proprietary and only available in binary form

chromium

I still don't get what the purpose of source compiling is

0.01% speed boost

Wrong

I enjoy my computer working.

portage is slow (probably my only issue with it), and almost every binary distro already has at least -O2 optimizations. even gentoo doesn't recommends going over -O2, so compiling from source yields minimal speed gains.

that being said, USE flags are still great. i just don't have the patience of setting it up.

AUR

Because compiling everything is an immense waste of energy.

enjoy your broken binary compatibility

oh fuck, there's nothing more

Works on my machine

Because python sucks and portage is written with it

I love the ports system, but I'm a poor medfag so it's basically impossible for me to own a desktop until I'm like 32.
Compiling the kernel on a thinkpad is awful, and I don't have any strong machines to use distcc.
Had a blast with freebsd in a VM though, loved that you basically have a repo in your /usr.

Customizing exactly what you want each program to support.

>Compiling the kernel on a thinkpad is awful
It's fine just leave your thinkpad on all night, I have gentoo on my x61 and it was no skin off my teeth to install it.

>all night to compile a kernel
takes 10 minutes on a modern laptop

i915 gvt drmbuf support was not ready yet the last time I checked

being more resistant to 0days by having an unpredictable code layout

because I don't always need to be able modify every little fucking thing in my os. I'm happy with my debian minimal install thank you very much

Cause compiling everything is retarded
ain't nobody got time for time

It's literally because I don't understand use flags. So if anyone wants to spoon-feed me that would be nice.

because im still installing it

i tried user, i really did, but its been compiling on my x60 since 2011.

To me OS is a tool, not a hobby.

Because I enjoy ports on FreeBSD.

Because I don't like botnet. I use Gabario like any other sane person.

I do like Gentoo but now I prefer Source Mage.

gentoo is like being a farmer and growing your own food and making a meal out of it.
arch is like buying food and making meal out of it.
other distros are like buying a meal. some people are too important or busy to grow and prepare their own food.

Still trying tu put it on my phone, already using it in every other computer i have

>2017
>Still not making your own Linux From Scratch

>Is it because you enjoy having security faults in your system?
Yes, I've got nothing to hide :)
