We're happy to announce that some of our contributors started to create ebuilds for #SonicDE on #Gentoo #Linux. You're welcome to join them, test the ebuilds, and create more at github.com/sonicde-gentoo. #GentooLinux
Installing #GentooLinux on microSD card same like installing #RaspberryPiOS which the iso file as livegui on usb.
Overview: Hacker News discusses Gentoo Linux in 2025 – its strengths, weaknesses, recent developments, and community perceptions. Insights from long-time users & developers cover its unique features & role in the current Linux landscape. #GentooLinux 1/5
TBT, I will *not* recommend #ArchLinux, #CachyOS, or #GentooLinux for #Linux newbies.
I will still recommend either #LinuxMint or #KDENeon
Main reason being that (1) I'm well-versed with Ubuntu so I can provide support, and (2) most apps officially come in .deb and/or .rpm
#XLibre third-party packages for #GentooLinux are available for ~amd64 and ~arm64 at github.com/X11Libre/por.... Actually they've been since Jun 20, but mostly as live ebuilds. Now they are versioned too. A big thank you to github.com/callmetango and github.com/stefan11111! #Gentoo
I wrote "nearly everything"
because for some particularly painful compilations
you can instead use
a pre-compiled binary package.
The tradeoffs:
- Might not be as optimized as it could be
- Might force you to add some USE flags you don't want
#GentooLinux
Seriously.
If you want a stable OS,
#GentooLinux is it.
The USE flags ensures
that all packages will work together.
Just don't use the ~amd64 keyword.
Of course the tradeoff is
you have to allocate time
to compile (nearly) everything
and to configure the kernel.

Building the package for the Avahi mDNS Zeroconf system.
Installing some OpenBSD ports. Since not a lot of effort is put into building macppc binary packages, I'm having to build from source.
Reminds me of Gentoo Linux from a couple of decades ago...

Happy Birthday to #GentooLinux! 🐧🎂🎈
Named after the world's fastest penguin, this #Linux distribution has been delighting everyone with its flexibility & performance for 26 years.
A big thank you to the #Gentoo developers, the community, & everyone else who makes this great #distro possible!

One important thing to emphasize
is that USE flags of #GentooLinux really help
in ensuring that packages work well
with other packages.
Remove all unnecessary cruft
and all dependent packages
will just adapt.
Something that other
binary-based distro
might not be able to do.
#Gentoo #Linux
#GentooLinux empowers you.
You no longer have to subscribe fully
to the opinions of the package maintainer(s).
Add/remove features as you want.
Gentoo Linux keeps your system stable.
USE flags ensure
that packages 'know' how to work with
other packages
or how they *won't* work.
#Gentoo #Linux
And even if a package refuses to compile
#Portage will tell why.
Usually it's because of a missing
or incompatible
USE flag.
You have transparency on what the blocker is
and agency on whether to "fix" the blocker
or find a different package.
#Gentoo #GentooLinux #Linux
The SuperPower of #Gentoo #Linux
is that you can set up your system
exactly the way you want it
via the USE flags.
And packages will -- most of the time --
adjust to your desires.
No such thing as package broken
because of missing dependency feature.
They either compile
or not.
#GentooLinux
#Gentoo Linux is not that "hard"
at least, not as "hard" as #LinuxFromScratch
Some of the "hard" points, I think, are:
1. Installation
2. Setting up your USE flags
3. Configuring your kernel the first time
Once you've done all that,
maintenance is easy.
Just need TIME.
#GentooLinux
With surprise,
I noticed that my #Gentoo machine
now pulls in #Zig as a BDEPEND
A bit of diving shows that
#ncdu has been rewritten in Zig.
Nice,
though that means
yet-another-compiler to pull in.
Maybe I should pull in zig-bin instead?

uhhh hi, I'm Ayzee (she/it)! I also use other names, which you can find on my pronouns.cc page (link in bio). I'm currently trying out Sharkey after using Mastodon for a while.

A 3D Rendering of a Microsoft Windows logo floating over a grey floor. The logo is made of red, green, blue, and yellow glass, throwing colored light onto the floor beneath it. The glass has a wavy bend to it.
I don't like or use #Windows anymore, but I did always like these cool #Wallpapers, and always wanted to make one of my own.
This is made in #Blender with #LuxCoreRender, though the caustics are subtle enough that #Cycles probably would have done a good […]

After a grueling 3 days of typing away at my laptop, I installed base #gentoolinux but I gave up installing the DE. I went back to #ArchLinux, but i used openrc. So it wasn't a total loss.
