All options send you in a ring without actually telling me how to install.

Don’t know. I was installing Gentoo in 6th grade of school with poorly-translated gentoo handbook.

If it doesn’t provide a benefit for them, why should they bother? I understand why a teenager would, I would have as a teenager. But as an adult? Who got time for this?

It was counterpoint to “send you in a ring without actually telling me how to install”. It does.

I also agree that installing it is rather lengthy.
