Void Linux: Into the Void
I usually refrain from distro- (and editor-, and language-) related discussions but I think Void Linux deserves an exception here:- Everything is remarkably simple, (mostly) well-documented and straightforward.- Friendly, dedicated and very knowledgeable community- Open development, very few hooks to jump through if you have something to contribute- No systemd, so: rebooting your system isn't a lottery where, if you lose, you get to wait for 90 seconds for some service to stop, your system doesn't start doing strange new things after every update because something that's been working fine since the 1980s has recently been declared broken, no binary logs to get corrupted (and no need to tweak your system and sidestep this brilliant scheme). Of course, you can't do much DevOps on Void Linux, but I'm pretty sure that's about as relevant as the fact that you can't run macOS on low-power embedded systems.- Completely community-ran and independent. Some things don't happen as quickly as in corporate-backed projects, but you're also not beta testing for their LTS or enterprise-grade releases, either. Also, no bureaucracy, no priority mismatch, no one to shove alpha-quality software down your throat.It's basically like OpenBSD with more drivers but based on slightly worse and less cohesive technology :-).
