#Slackware, @Devuan, and #Antix are free by design.
#Gentoo, to me, had the best approach: gives you choice of init system.

Back in the day when #ADSL was king and having 10Mbps fiber in a data-center was fantastic. I had the option to put a PC tower as a server, with a whole-ass C-net of IPs to boot.
What #Linux #Distro did I choose? Well, I was head over heals at the time with #Gentoo so of course I installed it on there. Was I wrong to do so? Well, was it fun? Hell yes!

#Server
#Gentoo
#MastoAdmin

Moving my sites over to the Gentoo server slowly. Have to get the dependencies installed and files moved from the current Ubuntu server to the new one. Aside from some pita that is the databases this shouldn't be a problem.

The problem will come when I start moving the Federated stuff like my Mastodon and NodeBB pages. Mastodon has 3 systemd scripts it requires to function and the Gentok server runs on Open-RC. Gonna take some work to modify the scripts and get them proper.

Any advice on that side is welcome.

Gonna start a community for hybridized-concepts.com, my tech commentary and projects page. Probably gonna be interesting with opposing ideas.

ugh i thought my audio issues on gentoo were solved but sometimes the audio gets sorta crunchy and stuttery for a few seconds? restarting the offending application usually solves it

#gentoo
@martinus #gentoo testing. I honestly think it's more stable than Debian releases, but I will admit that I have about twenty years of bias to work through 😏

Imagine a world where gentoo would have remerge.

Emerge rewritten in Rust.

Did you like that world?
To bad i suck at Rust XD

But i would love that world....

#gentoo #rust #linux

how do openrc's new user units handle logging?

#gentoo

@0x0 If we put it that way, then OpenAI or Anthropic may be operating system providers, because their products could (assuming absurd amounts of compute) in principle produce a working system from scratch.

Thus, in a way, blocking/removing binhost repos from California might be enough to be non-compliantly irrelevant, because clearly source code is not an operating system and neither are stage3 tarballs operating systems and neither is the #Gentoo handbook in itself an operating system...

so I installed Gentoo and everything is working except sound. I'm using pipewire and have its alsa and pulse backends enabled. however, no sound card is detected. aplay --list-devices shows no sound cards and pipewire only shows dummy output. I'm using openrc and the distribution kernel (gentoo-kernel-bin)

EDIT: figured it out! the guides currently recommended a very minimal initramfs called µgRD which gave me trouble. I said fuck it and switched to dracut and everything works now
