Void Linux

For medium to advanced users, I believe the best experience is derived from installing a distro that gives you just a tty and building up from there. Debian's packages are too old. Arch's too new lol, I don't wanna have to think about my updates at all. Void is the perfect middle ground between those, installs similar to Debian, and even boots faster than both :)

(Gentoo is a no no)

Probably the fact that updates are fast, but not so fast that things break often.

Rolling-Release, but not Bleeding-Edge.

Void-src is nice

• ISO's for many systems (x86_64, i686, arm) • Base images for highly customizable experience •Good for old or "weak" machines, due to its capability to be a light OS •5 minute friendly installer for a non GUI one •Good documentation with a handbook •Engaged comunnity in different plataforms(like Reddit, lemmy, IRC) •Rolling release but not bleeding edge, packages and updates verified before releasing. Void focus in stability. •xbps (x binary packages systems) for managing packages, which is quite easy to use •runit (or systemd free) •easy services management •really fast booting •Original not based or dependand

That's what got me into Void. I have It in 64bit and 32bit old laptops. The 32bit it's a daily driver for college which i enjoy very much due to it being small, inexpensive and "agile" in its own way.

There's a lot of features that i didn't explored yet for lack of knowledge or need like disk encryption, ZFS via chroot, musl, arm installs or server usage. Void is great, i'm really thanked for everyone who works in it.
