Gentoo is losing sponsors while a certain other distro keeps raking them in.
We truly are in hell

I wonder what the number of users is various distros. I used Gentoo on my desktop around 15-20 years ago and really loved it, but now I prefer vanilla Debian. I think Arch took over a large part of the Gentoo user base.

If I were to hazard a guess, I’d say that hardware costs being driven up dramatically has made it more difficult for their sponsors to provide infrastructure to the project for free.
