Packaging rust is terrible, compiling rust is terrible. How can it be this awful? Why is the rust compiler so terrible?

tbh, with modern CPUs it can be a lot easier. especially if you're a bit picky about your packages and get a binary package for your browser.
you still get huge amounts of choice and really good tooling
gentoo is less about compiling from source (I mean it can be about that too) and more about having a lot of choice and really nice tooling. it's in some ways a bunch more stable and declarative than arch. packaging your own stuff is even easier and you can just have most packages be stable while only running unstable version of the packages you explicitly care about :)
it's a lot less scuffed in some ways while still giving you a lot of control and a lot of tools for declarative system management. it's also waaay better documented. it's comfy.
you can have it any flavour you want :)
they are :)
it's fun
One clearly got a bit luckier with his hairline...
Holy shit, it's actually an actor and not just some random 4channer?
I've become a rust hater because of this
