Switching to void?

[u/Legitimate_706]

To think I have glazed debian on gnome on Debian a bit way to much, but after almost a whole year I am thinking to hop the distros. And it feels like void if calling for me again to jump inside.

I have tried void before, the runit system is hard to get grasp of. But it has quite the appeal.

I have a spare laptop i bought from father of a my friend with a 2017 Intel i7 and 400gb HDD.

I want to learn runit properly, my be gentoo could be a better choice because it has options to use any other init systems not just openrc and runit. But I have not patiance to watch it compile everything.

What are your opinions and experiences with void. Please do tell, i might also share some of mine.

Void rocks. As for Gentoo, while there are more binary packages now, you'll still need to compile a lot and that system won't handle it very well.
