...you get a firefox without support even to pipewire, after many hours of compilation :)

(it should be www-client, without the S)

Are you not using a desktop profile? That sets the sane defaults you're missing

    yes, i am

    I'm very confused about that btw, cuz i also set pipewire on global use flags, so, i think firefox should be affected by that, no?

    I dunno, but i will try to recompile that this night again lol

    www-client/firefox does not have a pipewire use flag, it uses pulseaudio which can use the pipewire backend for playing the audio (not sure about the specifics) https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/PipeWire for all issues, I'd recommend #gentoo on irc.libera.chat

    And not many packages do.

    (And while poking around looking at that on my latest (still quite fresh) Gentoo install, I realised I didn't have gentoolkit installed yet, for equery (for what little use equery h did me, since I have no packages installed using pipewire (or system-pipewire). Ah well, got it installed now. Thanks.)

    I have never used Gentoo and at this point I feel like I'd enjoy writing big assembly projects more than configuring a Gentoo PC.

    Some people enjoy just ordering a plate of raw ground beef, flour, yeast, and some cheese and constructing their own burger. The kind of people who'd love to completely design and build their own house with their own hands if they had the cash and time.
