Hey #mozilla could you please less often release versions that need bugfix releases? Compiling Firefox takes 4 days on my notebook.

@txt_file that is why gentoo is not userfriendly

@Bobo_PK nah … it isn't gentoos fault that Mozilla released Firefox 89.0.1 shortly after releasing 89.0.0 😜

do you really want the testing-version of firefox? there is also a binary-version available, if you don't want to compile it every time.. and yes, i know the benefits of compiling on gentoo ;)

@CaptFreezer I currently use an eeePC with Intel Arom n455 to learn/test gentoo. Yes I want Firefox compiled with “-Os -march=native” 😉
I have a similar notebook running Windows 10. I am fascinated about the performance difference between firefox on the same cpu but very different operating systems. On gentoo firefox comes close to being usable for every day browsing.
