what about void linux

[-] hellfire103@sopuli.xyz 6 points 9 months ago

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

[-] callyral@pawb.social 2 points 9 months ago

what did you have trouble with?

[-] hellfire103@sopuli.xyz 4 points 9 months ago

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.

[-] hellfire103@sopuli.xyz 1 points 9 months ago

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.
