Sabayon Linux was a Gentoo-based distribution that existed from the mid-2000s until 2019. It aimed to make Gentoo accessible to regular users without the usual compilation headaches.

Created by Fabio Erculiani, Sabayon offered pre-built binaries through its Entropy package manager. This let users skip the hours of compiling while still getting the Gentoo experience.

Now Fabio has shared that he's working on a new immutable, atomic Linux distro called matrixOS. Like Sabayon, it's also based on Gentoo.

🚧 The developer warns that this is a hobby project specifically created for homelab setups, not for production machines.

Noice, I'll try that. Also, the Gentoo is my favourite species of penguin 🐧🐧🐧🐧
