Yup, everything checks out.
But Arch GNU/Linux is better than gentoo, prove me wrong
>>53872254
better is subjective.
>>53872075
my x.org conf isn't broken

It's not the worst distro, but there's nothing it offers that makes it worth using over any other distros and it has the worst fucking user base.

Gentoo is amazing. I can have multiple conflicting versions of packages, or 64 and 32 bit libraries at once. And it's all fine because the programs that depend on specific architectures or specific versions of programs are compiled from source, so portage just links them with the version it knows it depends on.
See https://devmanual.gentoo.org/general-concepts/slotting/ and https://www.gentoo.org/support/news-items/2015-03-28-true-multilib.html
If you've ever had to deal with dependency issues with packages you'll know why this is awesome.
Also being able to manually include (or exclude) certain features from any package or your kernel is extremely useful. For example, I was able to simply remove the SSL heartbeat extension and recompile my packages when the heartbleed vuln came out.
Did I even mention Portage?
>Portage works without any external repo.
>Portage supports using llvm icc etc to build with.
>Portage supports distcc.
>Portage supports slotting of dependencies.(multiple versions of python ruby gtk etc)
>Portage supports multiple kernels BSD Fedora debian etc.
>Portage can thread package installs and downloads.
>>53872343
you forgot
>portage spits itself occasionly if you don't mask/unmask certain dependencies
that's the reason i left this distro. Plus, X11 broken two times after updating within one month.
You can't even play world of warcraft on that BITCH ASS piece of SHIT

I used arch for over half a year now and X didn't break for me even once.
>>53875254
So what did break? Audio? Graphics acceleration? Bluetooth? Some other basic functionality of any other distro?
>>53875294
It just werks for me.
I've actually been thinking about playing around with it. How hard is it to learn?
I have Arch right now but I'm not exactly a master at using it, I'm constantly reading up on things on the wiki.
NixOS is all you need sucka.
