To be fair, you can still build packages and fine-tune the builds with the Emerge system flags, which is sort-of Gentoo’s killer feature. It is just that they have recognized that most people will install probably 99% of all software without changing the default flags, and so why not give them those packages pre-built.

So I guess this make Gentoo more similar to Nix OS or Guix OS but without the high-tech package manager and dependency resolution.
