thanks for the criticism!
The Gentoo wiki used to be the gold standard, even for non-Gentoo users, but it was an unofficial wiki and a hard-drive crash (if memory serves) killed it with no backups. It was mostly restored with help after that.
Rip, it would’ve been nice if Gentoo’s docs were better than/highly competitive against Arch’s docs. As a fan of Arch I often refer people over to the Arch Wiki however there are instances when I or my customers encounter incomplete/missing sections that then requires us to scour through SO or other forums for troubleshooting
By default, Gentoo uses the older sysvinit system
Weird to put it this way, since Gentoo is well known for its use of OpenRC which is what you’d use instead of systemd. Both are common on Gentoo systems.
Yeah I also found that really odd as it made me question if I remembered OpenRC being an Init system or not
I’m stopping here - the whole article feels off, perhaps it’s AI-written?
it seems likely, although I can’t confirm for sure as I only have hands-on exp with Arch either way
I’d recommend finding a better source.
I’m def gonna have to find better sources👍💯

I think it’s fair to say that the Arch wiki is larger and covers more areas, but if there’s a Gentoo page on the same topic, the Gentoo one will be as good/better.
Arch is more popular, and so has more contributors (e.g. recent edits for Gentoo vs Arch).
