fall back! (iusearchlinux.fyi)

As the linux market share increases to 4%, arch linux will consistently keep coming in. Unfortunately, this will make arch harder to gatekeep, and eventually everyone will prefer arch. So we need a solution to this problem. And that is what I have! I propose that the distro gatekeepers of arch linux should fall back... to gentoo! Think about it, it's way harder to install for inexperienced users, and it compiles everything itself so it will test the patience of anyone we are trying to gatekeep.

So what do we think?

Gentoo is offering binary packages that you don’t even need to compile yourself! https://www.gentoo.org/news/2023/12/29/Gentoo-binary.html

Yeah I know but for maximum penis size i prefer to compile myself

....I think gatekeeping any Linux distro is a dumb idea. You want people to be using it. You want companies like microshit to feel pain by a free and open alternative so they can stop crippling the world with more bullshit. Stop with this weird ass gatekeeping bullshit.

If you want to gatekeep something, make your own and don't let anyone use it
