Hello,

first I installed Gentoo with glibc and it worked fine, I got sway up and running but after some time I got bored and wanted something new. so I decided to go with Arch with rEFInd bootloader but I couldn’t make it work. Arch dropped me into a rescue shell. so I went back to Gentoo but this time with musl and this time I tried Hyprland on Gentoo. there were 133 packages to install for Hyprland, so I went for installing those packages but the build failed probably because using musl. now I thought I just pick that’s easy to setup and I went with Debian and it got installed successfully. so yeah, right now I am using Debian after the back and forth between Arch and Gentoo.

sadly I pissed of some Gentoo devs on IRC #gentoo :(

maybe it was my fault I shouldn’t have distrohopped when Gentoo was installed succesfully and working fine.

    I feel like I’m the only one that doesn’t just hop all the time in the community.

    I run Debian and it does basically everything I needed to, what it doesn’t do I have a distrobox container on it which allows more or less seamless integration to my current system. I currently only use it for Final Fantasy XIV via lutris for some reason the arch version of lutris will work fine but the debians version of it when I launched Final Fantasy XIV will white page after logging in. It’s so weird.

    It’s so weird to think about, cuz everyone I talk to has stated do not use that OS if you plan to actively game, because it’s considered a stable release so therefore everything’s outdated. But I very rarely ever have any issue with gaming it just works
