Does Gentoo have something special that other distros do not?

Isn’t there a Gentoo installer like with Arch?

Nope. That’s the “something special”. You do it manually with the help of a very well written handbook and learn a great deal about how an os works. IMO a great experience.

Proclaim the Gospel of W. C. Jesus!

Maybe you could put another stick on top

A really beautiful Cuprea!

Some time ago I bought a very small Cuprea myself and almost lost it. I found it difficult to keep the soil continuously not too moist, but not too dry either. When there was no leaf left, I repotted it in a Lechuza planter (a combination of baked clay granules, water reservoir and self-watering wick) and it recovered. I guess that keeps the right balance and avoids root rot.

God help us when those two clash
