    Well, I like gentoo for it’s top notch security and I see why you’d use it for extremely security sensitive applications, but people that use it as a desktop are nuts.

      I’m not saying anyone is wrong for shying away from Gentoo, but using a comprehensive desktop environment, systemd, and gentoo-kernel gives a very non-fiddly experience.

      Combine that with running updates overnight or honestly just running them in the background while you work, and it’s not nearly as bad as its reputation.

      Still very much a commitment vs other distros, but not as bonkers as it can seem.
