Are Flatpaks evil for some reason? There is a package not on Gentoo that I need, but it has a Flatpak. It would be the only Flatpak on my system, but I've tried really hard to keep it as minimal as possible, so I'm not sure if using a Flatpak would negate all my efforts.
I don't know much about flatpaks, but if it's retroarch you want there is a Gentoo overlay for it. Check out https://github.com/stefan-gr/abendbrot.

A small USB WiFi dongle that will actually work under Gentoo?
Honestly, as has been described by others, if you've already got the hardware and there's a DKMS module just use or wrap that; it's not like a kernel module ebuild is terribly complex.
