I used gentoo exclusively for a couple years on various machines, mostly because of need: I had one of the first revisions of the AMD Ryzen 7 1700X which was plagued with a silicon bug. You could mitigate this issue by compiling the entire system with a recent enough version of GCC and some specific flags. Coming from Arch, I found gentoo to be some order of magnitude more stable, while performance wasn’t that much different. I enjoyed it so much that I ran it on my MacBook Pro retina and an old thinkpad x61s, which took almost two days to compile GCC 6 :’)
