Just have to add some packages to make gaming work.Gonna take a break for now.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gentoo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gentoo</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openrc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#openrc</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/linuxgaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linuxgaming</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#opensource</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/freesoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#freesoftware</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/foss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#foss</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/steam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#steam</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/wine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wine</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/winegaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#winegaming</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/valve" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#valve</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/proton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#proton</a>

Da Linux beardudeI think it's about time I ditched Arch Linux for Gentoo. Arch has gotten easier and I've gotten bored with it. Once I've settled to Gentoo, I'd have Void Linux scratch my "Arch Linux" itchI mean, I've already explored Linux distros with different inits. I don't think anything can stop me when I have Arch, Gentoo, and Artix wiki handy<a href="https://www.gentoo.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.gentoo.org/</a><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gentoo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gentoo</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/archlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#archlinux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/arch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#arch</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/void" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#void</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/voidlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#voidlinux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/alpine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#alpine</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/alpinelinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#alpinelinux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/chimeralinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chimeralinux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/devuan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#devuan</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/artixlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#artixlinux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/s6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#s6</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dinit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dinit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/runit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#runit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openrc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#openrc</a>

JdeBP<a href="https://wandering.shop/@cstross" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@cstross</a> I enjoyed how spot-on you accidentally were. (-:Interestingly, people still argue today (as you've probably seen in these threads) as if it were van Smoorenburg rc that was the other choice for Debian et al. back in 2014; which was in reality either Upstart or OpenRC. It's a very persistent erroneous dichotomy.<a href="https://tty0.social/tags/systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#systemd</a> <a href="https://tty0.social/tags/Upstart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Upstart</a> <a href="https://tty0.social/tags/OpenRC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenRC</a>

Eugenia LI was so happy to see a modern OS use just 270 MBs of RAM with XFce. And it's FAAAAAST. But very soon afterwards, it let me down.Alpine Linux is ridden with dependency issues and other random bugs that made it impossible for me to use it as a desktop. Maybe it's great as a server, but it has not seen much love on the desktop side. Maybe it's a human resources problem.

Aho<a href="https://fosstodon.org/@gloopsies" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@gloopsies</a> if using <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Artix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Artix</a> and missing an <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openrc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#openrc</a> init script, then take a look at <a href="https://gpo.zugaina.org" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://gpo.zugaina.org</a> and you can more or less just copy the files from the portage for the package without need of writing the code yourself, but sure it ain't as simple as just get everything installed from scratch.I can't say I have noticed that there is a lot missing when it comes to packages, sure not as much as <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Gentoo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gentoo</a> but enough for most desktop users.Running a server I would pick another distro.
