  • defeats the purpose? Also, like I mentioned, I used it ages ago…binary packages when I was using it weren’t very common. I see they “went binary” a few years back… but then, why bother with Gentoo?


  • I used Gentoo for ages… it was the only distro I’d consider for my personal projects. Eventually, the amount of time it took to compile packages wore me out and I switched to fedora. Maybe I’m just old but watching gcc fly by for hours on end to compile X11 was neat but is not how I want to spend my Saturday anymore. Maybe I’ll build out a VM for old times sake…


  • What they’re asking is why Traefik/Caddy and not nginx? Do they offer anything that nginx doesn’t? Nginx is pretty tried and true and honestly, in this space, I personally prefer tried and true over new and shiney unless new and shiney offers something I need that old faithful doesn’t.

    To be fair, I was an Apache hold out for a looong time until I accepted my lord and savior nginx into my heart.
