Yeah - I just set up Gentoo for the first time, and the wiki is _excellent_.

I had this preconception that Gentoo was ‘complicated’, but the excellent documentation has made everything easy (and I’m coming round to the opinion that Gentoo is actually easier because how it works is so ‘transparent’).

I found Gentoo much easier if you knew you were going to stray from the beaten path (e.g, custom kernel, weird library choices, etc).

It's been surprisingly stable for me considering everything I throw at it, and much of what I learned has helped diagnose issues with other distros.
