Shit, just linux.
Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though… go nuts

Gentoo
To Gentoo users: what I'm supposed to do about the upgrades of browsers if I don't have a great CPU? Do you install alternative/smaller browser or compile them on night? I feel like there are too many sites that require Firefox/chromium to run functionally, I'm pretty sure Firefox (the only one I tried) accounted for over 1/3 of the compile time with its dependencies.
Maybe there is some setting, preferred hardware, that makes the compiling a bit easier. Outside of NixOS (might want to learn) and Arch (currently using), Gentoo (know how to use but too much compiling made me not install on new PC) is the only distro I'd like to daily drive, so would be cool to get some advice on it.
