Holy shit my kernel finished building it's been only 2 hours
I could do kernel upgrades during the daytime that took no time at all. I was expecting like up to 4 hours to build.

@kirby@lab.nyanide.com I built an LFS a lot of times on a fucking intel atom lmfao
last time I ever had to compile kernel was only the past year during the Arch era of chaotic.ninja, never again

I do it quite often as I have PowerPC machines and there is no one who would do that for me, I no longer look in the .config though, just copy the old one over and go with defaults if something gets added 😁

I also build Firefox for 2-3 architectures regularly — I patch the option to disable WebP back in. I'm using Void and mostly I'm quite satisfied with the defaults.
Having something like Gentoo — same as you, never again! If you have more than one machine, servicing them starts taking all your time with no obvious benefit.

@kirby
My idiosyncrasy for WebP doesn't allow me to 😏 Otherwise Void has reasonable defaults for FF.
I wonder if there is a way to request for this about:config preference to be added back in?
The patch is literally a dozen lines long and that would allow me to keep updating it on Android, Windows and such… 🤔
