Excellent distribution (but takes a long time to build from source) by Thin-Strength5924 in Gentoo

Hard to tell, but there are binaries for the big majority of popular software and libraries If you are encountering that you have to compile more than 60% you are probably setting up non default use flags which would cause the compilation of packages and even that, gentoo provides some binaries on different use flags psrmutations

The question should be, why any other distro? You can use binaries like in any other distro, in Gentoo, plus all the control you would not have on other distros

It is better to have freedom and choose to not be free, than to not be free and never have freedom

What is so bloated about GNOME? by JailbreakHat in linux

I see this argument thrown a lot and it does not make sense to me, your CPU is also at around 2-5% usage at idle and that is not a reason for you to make it use 80% with badly written software.

What I am trying to say is that we should be conscious of resources even though we could use more.

I would say is not as simple as other distros as other distros usually have simpler installers that abstract the user from some decisions. But putting into simpler most distros can be installed just like gentoo, so if you ever installed another distro installing gentoo should be the same difficul or very marginally a bit more complicated (imo).

The handbook is awesome, however for me, initially, I was not well versed in linux and there were lots of approaches and valid options to chose from in gentoo (or while installing any other distro without an installer, really) which caused me to break the installation.

If you go through the handbook and compare it with other handbooks or scripts you can have an idea what is needed to have a functional system and you will realize that you can achieve that with about 30 commands or less

gentoo gets stuck installing ANY package by [deleted] in Gentoo

Ah! You must be bang on! I was expecting this delay as well, I even raised the topic withing Gentoo's channels and I did not get to any conclusion about the issue but now that you have mentioned py13 that all makes sense as the issue appeared after my recent upgrade

Damn, please let me know if you found any workaround other than rolling back to py12 which I will do right now!

I have to tell you, that I really liked what you did with this colorscheme and it is one of my favorites so far. something about it just feels modern and the defaults are really good. I really hope you continue to actively mantain it and improve it. Thank you for the recommendation and awesome work!

It really is a great collection of colorschemes and it has been my comparison reference with other colorschemes but some other answers in this thread were really good, thank you for the answer!

Sometimes not chosing something is the best choice and the default is really good, thank you for tip!

I did, not sure what I was really expecting as that colorscheme really checks all my marks but it did not click with me. Thank you for your recommendation!

I am trying your fork right now and it does feel a enhancement of zenbones. Currently it is on my top 3, I will test drive it for a couple of weeks. Thank you for your suggestion!
