Yeah, it just it might take a long time depending on your hardware. Stage 3 tarball installation took more than 2 days on my netbook (years ago). I don’t want to imagine compiling LibreOffice on that hardware. :)
It really doesnt take as long as you would think. I did it on a chromebook. Kernel and webrowser are the only things that take awhile and its only a few hours. When i did it on my gaming desktop it was barely any time.
I actually haven’t tried Gentoo on my main machine for a really long time so I can only guess. With 6 cores 12 threads it should be fast enough I think. Gotta admit I’m surprised that it does that well on a Chromebook.

You can download binary blobs nowadays… Firefox, LibreOffice without any delays.
That’s actually nice to know. Though if I’m gonna use Gentoo, I’m gonna compile everything.But I wouldn’t do that without a really beefy machine too.

oh no compiling kernel and webbrowser on a chromebook took over a day and was incredibly painful. Sorry for the confusion.
No problem! Kinda disappointed but they’re Chromebooks, even if it was an Intel one, it’s still slow. Should’ve suspected. :)
