Everything just feels way more complicated than it needs to be.
I tried installing Openshot (a video editor) but I couldnโt 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 donโt need a masterโs degree to install packages.
Edit: Gentoo isnโt the first distro Iโve tried, Iโve 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 didnโt 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
