Everything just feels way more complicated than it needs to be.

I tried installing Openshot (a video editor) but I couldn’t figure out how to fix the error it spits out when I try to emerge it.

I will now try out Arch and hope I don’t need a master’s degree to install packages.

Edit: Gentoo isn’t the first distro I’ve tried, I’ve been daily driving Debian for more than a year and just wanted to try it out since I heard good things about it. And also I didn’t really need to use Openshot, I just wanted some video editor and arbitrarily chose to install that one.

Also I guess I will just stick with Debian since apparently Arch is also complicated.

    I mean… It doesn’t have to be a competition, does it?

    Some people just want a stable system to work on. I kind of want to leave Ubuntu, I like mint and popos, but. They don’t always work out of the box like Ubuntu does for me. So I just change the dm to emulate other distros and it feels good enough.

    Am I doing it wrong?
