Vulkan Video Extensions for Accelerated H.264 and H.265 Encode
Whilst Firefox may support hardware video decoding, Mesa since March 2022 disables patent encumbered codecs by default[1], and distributions such as Fedora and OpenSuse do not explicitly enable these patent encumbered codecs to avoid possible legal problems. Even Gentoo (built from source code by the user) requires the user to explicitly enable a USE flag (proprietary-codes) to use patent encumbered codecs.[2]
The thought process is that AMD, NVIDIA, Intel and the likes are not providing a patent license with their hardware.[3] They are instead just supplying part of an overall system that together with operating system kernel, display manager software, video player software, etc allows the decoding and encoding of patent encumbered video files. Open source software projects and distributions are concerned they'd be found to be infringing patents by enabling a complete solution out-of-the-box. Hence they put some hurdles in place so that a user has to go out of their way to separately piece together the various parts to form a complete system capable of encoding and decoding patent encumbered codecs.

I like gentoo's package deprecation process
Thank you! I don't live in git and this helps! Normally under gentoo I shouldn't have to. This actual git https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo (as opposed to the gentoo browser view) plus this "checkout the commit" should get me much further. ... And probably deserve some space in the gentoo docs.
- Great news java people: Gradle eclass is in the works!

Is gentoo difficult to maintain as a daily driver?
You choose - here's a list

Planning to benchmark Ubuntu vs Gentoo, what benchmarks can you recommend?
You can also go full lto, see ltoize on https://github.com/InBetweenNames/gentooLTO.
- Which distros are built with -O3 optimization?

Gentoo USE flag check
If you want to optimize the living shit out of Gentoo, I'd advise not just stopping at LTO and -fdevirtualize-at-ltrans and checking out GentooLTO.

Do You Prefer Clang or GCC
I am wondering if you prefer Clang or GCC. Which one compiles faster, and which one produces faster binaries? What are the advantages of Clang over GCC, and vice versa? I've enabled LTO optimizations for my system.

how can I improve my workflow further?
I unironically do that, see GentooLTO

Bichés be like i love compiling QTwebengine.
FWIW I just based the joke off the GentooLTO project
- Any recommendations on where I can read up on pgo and lto? (Suddenly Firefox demands ...something, and I have never cared about this since I installed gentoo.)
What are some alternatives?
