I missed this but Gentoo Linux allows you to bootstrap the rustc compiler using a regular C++ compiler via mrustc. You should be able to build the entire Rust toolchain from source without having to rely on a rustc binary distribution if you wish so.

And not by telling them to paste shit in a Terminal! Or telling them to switch distros. Or guessing because you’re on a different distro and don’t know the answer. Or asking fucking ChatGPT. Contributing noise is of negative value
@danirabbit @Linux_in_a_Bit not gonna defend gate keepers but as someone grow up in freenode #gentoo #arch, RTFM was kind of etched on my mind really early on and I think I became a better computer user thanks to it and not despite of it :)
Seeing a lot of people getting into tiled and scrolling window managers.
I actually like my desktop with overlapping windows and being a bit in a chaotic state and slightly different all the time.
My brain needs some variety and breaks from orderly processes, because I'm a human being and I've evolved to work best in semi-chaotic circumstances.
Obviously you do you but I'm considering this trend at least to some degree productivity wankery.
@thomasfuchs I was on the same page with exactly the same heuristic reasoning until I got to witness two students of mine working with tiling for a full semester.
Seeing their tailored workflows gave me more than enough reason to reconsider my own ways and now I can't believe I would ever go back to floating, really.
(They're using #arch, btw. I haven't been successful in converting them to #gentoo so far, bloody $&%/)

Wow, #Gentoo moving from GitHub to Codeberg is cool. Haven't run Gentoo for years now but still have a soft spot for it (I learned so much running it as main driver).
I also use Codeberg für my code (and joined the association) but we can't just "move everything to Codeberg". That's neither sustainable nor a good model. We should have more associations like Codeberg to offer those kinds of services. Create a whole web of forges for collaboration while we can watch GitHub go to hell.

Lots to love about #Codeberg right now.
#Zig moved to it. LibreWolf is using it. Many #Fediverse projects use it including the FEP process. #Fedora set up their own Forgejo instance (the underlying software for Codeberg).
Now #Gentoo is switching from GitHub to Codeberg!
I've migrated most of my projects there as well.
Every one of these stories is a win for #OpenSource and a middle finger to #Microslop, which is a win-win all around. 😊

Has anyone installed Gentoo on a Framework Desktop? Any issues worth mentioning?

Gentoo's 2025 retrospective encapsulates everything I like about the project: it's chugging along just fine, it's not going for dramatic changes, chasing trends or "business friendliness". It's doing what it does well and that's it. It's a genuine volunteer-based project and a far cry from the many corporate-sponsored ones.
From what I have seen over the years. gentoo is the great grandfather of Android.
You can derive a new Phone OS or Tablet OS from that.
