Former Gentoo user here. The thing I have in common with the other former Gentoo users I know IRL (a whopping 2 of them) is that none of us have the time for it anymore.
So if I ever find myself having too much free time, you bet your ass I’ll reinstall Gentoo.
I was a passioned Gentoo user for many years and I also only met 1 other IRL Gentoo user. Ok, there were more once at a Linux conference where a bunch of Gentoo users had a desk showing off Gentoo compiling @system for a BSD system.
Even the binary repository was not enough for me to not go back to Debian after ~10 years Gentoo usage. It was a fun hobby and a great learning experience.
I tried Gentoo once, I just straight up do not have time for that. It’s fine, honestly nice even, but the waiting omg. Maybe I was doing things wrong but I don’t have all day to sit around eating for things to compile
Tbf one of these things is fictional: Gentoo users

Funnily enough, the one irl Linux user I’ve met used Gentoo. I originally assumed they used arch.

I’m a living proof you’re the opposite of right 😁
