  1. İki gündür bazı bazı cihazlara gentoo kurmaya çalışıyorum. öğretici bir çalışma olacak gibi, mesela bir sonraki işlemcimi i7 ya da ryzen 7 ailesinden yapacak cinsten eğitici. Zen falan da olabilir tabi bilgisayar şu anda dere kurutan bir tamagotchiye dönüştü

  2. CW: god what a fucking text wall. tl;dr most linux distros suck, help me choose one.

    arch uses systemd (unstable, can store your age, buggy pile of shit thats hard to customise) and artix is supporting a project run by fascists (xlibre)

    you know what that means, distroswap! what should i swap to. good candidates below in poll.

    my computer (late 2012 mac mini) is low-power (3rd gen i7 @ 3.3ghz, 16gb ram, 256gb ssd) and all i do it browse fedi (akkoma), rip dvds (makemkv), and sometimes make music using furnace tracker

    i’m automatically ruling out anything that’s not rolling-release (out of date), using systemd, is made and run by a large corporation, has a history of telemetry, (has a core portion that) isn’t (F)(L)OSS, or supporting/being a project made by fascists. i already know openrc, but i can learn new init systems. anything that requires flatpak is automatically gone as well. something being hard to install isnt that bad to me, ive installed arch manually three separate times and converted an arch installation to an artix installation.

    before you suggest ageless linux, that is based on debian, which both uses systemd and is not rolling-release.

    also i should add this isnt to help me choose one but to help me with the order in which i try them all

  3. Learn 11yo dog new tricks… Old #samsung TV works as #dlna WiFi loudspeaker (undocumented) thanks to gitlab.com/xdegaye/pa-dlna on my #gentoolinux machine. And what happened to you after glass of #hibiki 🥃? #linux #geek

  4. Hace unos días instale Gentoo Linux, es mi primera vez instalandolo y sinceramente me gusta, creo que es mis distribución favorita #gentoo #gentoolinux #linux :ivory_elephant:

  5. There should be a new package set in Gentoo Linux to mark packages that used LLMs so I can easily mask them.

    #GentooLinux #Linux

  6. We're happy to announce that some of our contributors started to create ebuilds for #SonicDE on #Gentoo #Linux. You're welcome to join them, test the ebuilds, and create more at github.com/sonicde-gentoo. #GentooLinux

  7. Gentoo Linux: because who doesn't love spending New Year's Eve compiling their entire OS from scratch? 🎉🔧 Let's celebrate 2026 by pretending Gentoo is still relevant, while the rest of the world enjoys systems that just work™. 😂💻

  8. @itsfoss I've been using dual boot of #ubuntu and #gentoolinux for a year in my #slimbook . (Sharing firefox and thunderbird profiles, nextcloud and zotero between installations)
    I hadn't used gentoo since I was twenty and I was afraid :blobugh:
    And now I have just removed ubuntu! Full time gentoo now :toot:

  9. @itsfoss its an openrc startup, so #gentoolinux or another distro packaging openrc and no systemd ;-)

  10. #XLibre third-party packages for #GentooLinux are available for ~amd64 and ~arm64 at github.com/X11Libre/ports-gent. Actually they've been since Jun 20, but mostly as live ebuilds. Now they are versioned too. A big thank you to github.com/callmetango and github.com/stefan11111! #Gentoo

  11. I've installed Gentoo in a VM and uh...
    It's really quite something lol. I'm too used to APT that Portage kinda messes with my muscle memory. Plus it's a whole lot of waiting and messing around with flags it seems? I don't think Arch deserves the "hard to install" label when compared with Gentoo tbh.. I didn't bother compiling the dist kernel and used the bin instead cause I've not got the best computer.

    Probably takes a lot of time to get the hang of. :bunhdgoogly:
    #gentoolinux #gentoo #linux

  12. Gentoo was trying to download rust-bin 1.74.1 to compile rust 1.74.1 to compile rust 1.75.0 to compile rust 1.76.0 to compile rust 1.77.1 to compile rust 1.78.0 to compile rust 1.79.0 to compile rust 1.80.1 to compile rust 1.81.0 to compile rust 1.82.0 to compile rust 1.83.0 to compile rust 1.84.1 to compile rust 1.85.1 to compile rust 1.86.0 to compile rust 1.87.0 to compile rust 1.88.0 to compile rust 1.89.0 🫠

  13. Happy Birthday to @gentoo! 🐧🎂🎈

    Named after the world's fastest penguin, this distribution has been delighting everyone with its flexibility and performance for 26 years.

    A big thank you to the developers, the community, and everyone else who makes this great possible!

  14. realized I never did an introduction post even for my other fedi account, so here we are now ​:neofox_blep:​

    uhhh hi, I'm Ayzee (she/it)! I also use other names, which you can find on my pronouns.cc page (link in bio). I'm currently trying out Sharkey after using Mastodon for a while.

    AuDHD and depression occupy my mind and won't leave even when I ask nicely. I have done programming in systems dev, and am into TTRPGs, drawing, and storytelling. Tone indicators are very nice (/gen).

    I run Gentoo, Zsh, NeoVim, Niri, and Kitty. They're all very nice projects and make using a computer rather pleasant (minus the fact I have an Nvidia GPU).

    I am certified Based
    ™️ by the World Gender Anarchist Society, and I will be stealing all of the estrogen from cis women (/sarc).

    my other account is
    @[email protected] if you're interested in that one.

  15. This made my day.

    Neighbours Kid*: I'm going to install Linux on my new computer this weekend. Could you please help me if I get stuck?

    Me: checks callender It's your lucky week. I can do that. What are you going for?

    Me: expecting something like Mint or Bazzite.

    Kid: Oh it's going to be Gentoo because Arch is for posers.

    *Well he is 16 and in an aprenticship to become a "Mechatroniker" so it should be fine...

    #linux #archlinux #gentoolinux #linuxmint #bazzite

  16. I don't like or use #Windows anymore, but I did always like these cool #Wallpapers, and always wanted to make one of my own.

    This is made in
    #Blender with #LuxCoreRender, though the caustics are subtle enough that #Cycles probably would have done a good enough job.

    Maybe I'll do a Linux version, but I'm not sure exactly how I'd go about it. There's a lot of distros. I could just throw a bunch of icons in a pile, but that might look tacky. I could just do a standalone for
    #GentooLinux, which I still love, even though I use #FedoraLinux now.

    #3DArt #AbstractArt

  17. #Kuroko and #Bim both on my #GentooLinux system

    Am I just switching to #ToaruOS tools entirely now?

    What next? #Yutani on Linux??? (Actually, that's not a bad idea...)

  19. Figured something out myself today. How to “Direct Kernel Boot” #gentoo #linux and removing #grub. Thought I’d make a guide and some scripts for helping out if others also want to try doing this.

    Here is the GitHub gist I made about it if you wanna try it yourself!
