Everything just feels way more complicated than it needs to be.

I tried installing Openshot (a video editor) but I couldnโ€™t figure out how to fix the error it spits out when I try to emerge it.

I will now try out Arch and hope I donโ€™t need a masterโ€™s degree to install packages.

Edit: Gentoo isnโ€™t the first distro Iโ€™ve tried, Iโ€™ve been daily driving Debian for more than a year and just wanted to try it out since I heard good things about it. And also I didnโ€™t really need to use Openshot, I just wanted some video editor and arbitrarily chose to install that one.

Also I guess I will just stick with Debian since apparently Arch is also complicated.

if you want to try something like Gentoo as a Debian user, it should probably be in a VM or on a second physical computer until you get used to it
