If you think you have ever felt true fear, you havent tried Gentoo yet

    Isn’t using a rolling distro, without updating it at least every couple of days (or even every single day) a big security risk?

      There is glsa-check for you.

      I daily-drive Gentoo on my main rig. A binary-repository exists now. You can still decide where you want different use-flag settings and save a lot compile time.

      Only for machines I don’t actively use (servers) or rarely use, I have Debian stable installed.

      Not any more or less than doing the same on a “stable” distribution.

      Depends on what you have installed and your needs. It’s a matter of understanding your system and knowing how to manage it.
