What sets Void apart?
Show threadHellfire103Mar 15, 2024
  • Uses runit instead of systemd
  • Optionally uses musl libc instead of glibc
  • Uses the XBPS package manager
  • Void is similar to BSD, in many respects
  • It’s very minimal, and that makes it flexible
  • It’s very lightweight. Until I installed a WM and started a bunch of daemons, my RAM usage was not only in the megabytes, but also only double digits.
  • It has XBPS-SRC, which is comparable to Portage and FreeBSD Ports.
  • Most of the documentation is on Reddit and in blog posts, as Void Docs is quite basic and the wiki is no-longer updated. Some may consider this a good thing, others will disagree.
