You may optionally choose to use the official binhost, in which case you
will avoid quite a bit of compilation. For example, nginx and docker are
both available as binpackages (but not gitea, which is not even stable
for arm64).

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gentoo_Binary_Host_Quickstart

As usual with binpackages, this fully respects your USE flags (but not
CFLAGS) and transparently falls back to compiling from source for all
packages:

- without binary availability, or
- for which you prefer a specific USE flag lacking in binary
  availability
