If you are new to I suggest you try with 😎 :debian:

Dependable, stable and easy to use 😉

freezr,

@jhx And if you are more on desktop side I warmly recommend to test out + so you don't have the burden of systemd! 👍

Corporate Spam Bot
@linux

is a booster-bot not really of linux, I would say ANTI-LINUX, and promotes constantly marketing by 3-4 corporations that seek to dominate linux and displace all alternatives.

@linux

Portrays as linux the products of IBM (systemd, Qt-corporation) and the distros that promote them by prohibiting alternatives.

BAN the corporate spam bot from all servers!

RedHat is/was to IBM what Qt is to Oracle, vehicles of domination into the open free ecosystem. Marketing dictates what "free" code to use.

Show me 1 ONE article in phoronics that "mentions" alternatives to systemd, and I will not speak of linux or foss ever again!

That would be etc.

Watching every video promoting switching from to gets me moving with a plan, later only to face multiple hurdles of medium to high complexity.

I mean I've moved , and switched major tools and configs, but nothing has been as intimidating as this one. Realizing how much of my setup is indirectly -dependent, it reminds me of my move out of in favor of .

So, I have been considering names for a Void Linux Mobile distro. As I normally do, I was making theoretical logos for names to get a good sense of if they sound good. I think I am in love.

Making the designs for the initramfs of a Void Mobile distribution is super fun. I can play with ideas that I've had while working on postmarketOS but could never implement.

I am running because it uses instead of .

I firmly believe we only need one kernel running at the same time.

Well so far playing around with on an old laptop I've up and running along with all my other stuff. I've built from source without issue and just setup printing / scanning . Using for services is a doddle too no cumbersome . Could :void: be about to replace on my daily ?
I think I need more time just to make sure that it's really for me but the results so far are in favour of Void.

You know, I think the coolest thing about is the fact I can run it on pretty much any system without replacing the system's init. Even on systemd systems!

So... I may have fallen in love with the system lol

Mewburn rc still uses PID files, a mechanism that people knew to be broken back in the middle 1980s. daemontools-family systems like runit do not.

There's no universal agreement on what a "service" is as opposed to a dæmon. But the concrete differences between the systems start with PID files, and continue with chain loading, logging, and composition.
