Never messed with LFS. I used Gentoo (and then Arch) when I had the luxury of more free time. Very fun to tinker with.

With Gentoo, waiting for your DE or web browser to compile was a great excuse to step away from the computer and go for a walk. The little things in life.

or run "emerge world"[1] before going to sleep and wake up at 3AM to check if it didn't halt on some missing deps while updating KDE...

[1] tbh I don't rememeber the exact emerge syntax, it was almost 20 years ago!
