Are they actually? Have you spent any time in the Gentoo community or talked to actual Gentoo users?

I see people parrot this around a lot but from my experience the insufferable thing is the constant complaining and sweeping accusations against a large and varied group of people who happen to use a certain distro.

The point is they're not as insufferable as made out - but there is a reason for the stereotype, for sure.

Though much of that may have been taken over by the Archies, I've not fought in the distro wars for years now.
