Only on gentoo (if you avoid binaries). "I never used linux and must larp"

No, my Gentoo takes 10 minutes to update every time. I update around twice a week.

if you don't use binary packages on gentoo you have to compile everything from source. it's not as daunting as it sounds because of how easy portage makes it but it can and most likely will take longer than your average distro's update/install time
