More specifically, Portage. I know use flags and “optimization” are all the hype, but really, would the average user even see a benefit from customizing all their use flags? Especially a benefit that compensates for the constant compilation?

I installed it once to help grow my e-peen, but immediately switched back to Arch after watching my system compile.

Those who daily drive it, do compilation and use flags annoy you, and do you see any real benefit?

    paragraph about how it’s totally useful

    Paragraph about how it’s actually just a nice feeling and the benefits above are just rationalization

        Well yeah it pisses them off because they’re here to read people talk about their experiences and give opinions, not for someone to paste ChatGPT output. If they wanted that they could’ve just used ChatGPT themselves.

        It seems like you’re well aware people are annoyed by it but do it anyways. Why?

            You said “100% ChatGPT” initially which gives off a different impression than “I just have a writers assistant”. People are gonna read that and assume it means you’re just asking ChatGPT about it and pasting what it said rather than conveying your own opinion.

            And saying “I love how it pisses you off” bothers me. It makes it sound like you relish in the way that it’s annoying to people and have that as a reason for using it.
