I ran Gentoo on our Ryzen 5800X computer... But we had to stop with that because after all my tinkering we didn't have a usable enough system capable of doing the things we needed, like running Steam.

I have developed a love/hate relationship with portage. It's very powerful letting you get at all the compiler flags. I like that. But it was too unwieldy also and parts of it felt a little outdated.

What I need for my workstation is something that is very powerful and efficient but also highly robust and stable enough to serve as the base for all my usages.

Maybe I'll try Funtoo. Thought about NixOS or something but don't want to do that really.

Looks like the creator of Gentoo has a YouTube: Daniel Robbins / BDFLFUN2
