Portage was great but losing a day whenever there was a glibc upgrade or something that caused a more “exciting” upgrade than usual wasn’t worth it. I wanted more stability after a while.
I can’t remember ever having a glibc related update problem. eselect news is always there for me. (:
I only have rarely a perl update related problem, but usually solvable with a world update. And since there are now binpkgs I only compile what has differing useflags from the selected profile. Portage has never been better!

Stability is for normies, embrace the compile times.
