WaffelsonPeople who use distros without systemd, why do you do this?
Gentoo come with OpenRC as default so I roll with it. And it's simple and it works.
Plus the idea of having to randomly wait for some obscure stuff to block for a minute the boot/shutdown is not my thing.
You have to compile everything though, even from a stage 2 installation. I haven’t attempted one for like 15 years, but I imagine it’s still not quick.
redcalciumDid you know Gentoo has binary packages now?
Dafuq?
That goes against everything I know about Gentoo…
They are also shipping x86-64 v3 packages. Something that on arch you still rely on 3rd party repos.
or you can use cachyos. running V3 packages on vanilla arch makes it more prone to breakage.
