figured i'd spin up a Void Linux community here since the one on lemmy.ml is kinda hard to reach for folks on other instances.

this space is for anyone using (or curious about) Void. ask questions, share tips, show off your setups, or just vibe.

not too many rules, just:

  • keep it Void-related
  • don’t be a jerk
  • no dumb distro fights

that’s it.

drop a post, say hey, share your rice, whatever.

I've been hacking away at this setup for the last couple months, I figured I'd share it in case anyone else could use inspiration or little pieces here and there.

I usually hold off on writing about new software until it’s had some time to prove itself, but this case is a little different. This project has the potential to bring Void Linux a bit closer to a broader audience—and that’s worth talking about.

As you know, Void stands out as one of the most well-known rolling-release distributions that doesn’t use systemd, catering mostly to more experienced Linux users. However, one area that often confuses newcomers is how it handles system services.

My experience with Void (infosec.pub)

Tried the Xfce version on a PC that I needed for some browser work only (Discord server moderation). The installation was a bit scary but not too bad.

Then I was greeted by an HDD boot speed comparable to my gaming PC with an NVMe. I still miss that now when the PC is running Arch (btw).

When it comes to issues, I only remember a missing screenshot utility (fixed with 1 command) and fonts (can't remember if I ended up fixing it).

I tried installing a bare system and then installing the best DE (which is GNOME.) but I had to configure Xorg and Wayland myself and uhh I failed miserably. Still wanna do it though.
