Has anyone tried this? I’m looking to switch to Void and this looks peachy. Has everything I want from a distro: as barebones as possible, so I can customize it myself.

From their wiki:
The em dashes definitely gives me LLM-vibes. Regardless, it mostly comes over as Void Linux with KDE Plasma and some onboarding. And I suppose they have their own repository. Furthermore, I think it’s a very new distro as their Github activities only go two months back.
To OP: Why would you use this over (some) other Void derivatives? Secondly, as you state
Why even bother with any of these to begin with?
The entire text on the website has common LLM patterns, so does the linked githubs repos readme file. The website itself also looks very similar to other vibecoded UIs I’ve seen.
I’m not saying this is definetly slop, but I wouldn’t trust this to be properly maintained either way.
Truthfully, it’s because I’ve become increasingly lazy lately,but I’ve been looking for a reason to move away from systemd ,as I am not a fan of hard dependencies like that anymore - been using arch for years and am looking to try other init system to sort of break away from monopolies.
You’re right of course,however, I find the Void documentation very lacking TBH and getting a minimal install with plasma and pipewire so what I need.
Edit: thanks for the recommendations. I completely forgot to check distrowatch.
You’re welcome. If you insist, I’d definitely grab a more established derivative. Preferably one that pre-dates GPT-3.5.
i actually ended up installing vanilla Void. I messed it up before with seating and bash_profiles, but following strictly their documentation, it took me 10 min to get a fully xdg-portals powered system with plasma.
