        Despite its popularity, I’ve never had much luck with Void. However, I could try it again. 17th time’s the charm!

            Just the little things, really. App compatibility, xbps not having too many packages, issues with Musl, GRUB not loading on the LiveUSB, desktop/WM selection, and also I don’t like the way Runit works. I could make it work if I needed to, but overall it just seems like too much effort.

              Void user here. If you’re having trouble with musl then just use the glibc base image. As they offer both C implementations.

                The Musl issues were a while ago. The other issues were experienced on the glibc version.

                Void is a distribution I keep trying, but I believe I’ll be either sticking with the Arch family or switching to Gentoo, openSUSE, or NixOS.

      As an Arch User who keeps hearing about OpenSUSE being a more stable rolling release…mind going into it a bit more? I’m happy on my system, mind, but idk, could be I’m missing out on something big for not making the jump. If nothing else, I’ll know my options

        To be frank I went away from Gentoo for much the same reason. And the constant compilation. I only used it once after that for a small project where I needed to minimise what actually lands in the OS.

        But all that was years ago.
