Sucessfully updated all my boxes and VMs to the 6.18.8 Gentoo binary kernel and everything is working flawlessly. The Gentoo kernel team is genuinely *amazing*, especially considering that over the span over a few years the distro went from "you have roll your own config and handle bootloader configuration yourself" to "you can install in a completely automated way a binary and everything works out-of-the-box".

@gabrielesvelto I completely agree.
Though, since I wasn't aware of this when I returned to Gentoo last fall, I *did* install manually and I regularly *do* compile my own kernels* 😅
* And convenience aside, why wouldn't you?
