        That’s what the average Gentoo user looks like after staying inside for two months installing, setting up and troubleshooting their system. Had it once, maybe a bit over 20 years ago. I respect those who love it, but it wasn’t for me.

          Try it, you start by installing it from chroot, so there’s nothing to lose.

          It’s very good, though I don’t use a full DE, so my compile times may not be representative.

          Just don’t download anything stupid from AUR. Verify your getting the correct, supported packages, and you should be fine.

            I think I escaped it because I use Garuda. They have their own copy called Chaotic-Aur where they prebuild and scan stuff. Between that layer, and me being slow to update, according to the scan, I avoided it. The packages that were infected that I had installed were older copies from before the infection.
