Runit is brilliantly simple, and as the old granite maul examine text says, “simplicity is the best weapon”.
I’m sorry, you won’t be able to convince me to use it, it doesn’t feel KISS (I left Arch when they swapped). Fuck binary logs too. The only place I use it is on my phone which is SailfishOS.
Void to me is what Arch used to be – I tend to use minimal replacements where I can, e.g. Openntpd as ntp, socklog as logger, seatd as logind, zfsbootmenu instead of systemd-boot, no polkit et cetera.
it’s the closest usable distro for me to cut most of the poetteringware out apart from messing around with Gentoo (which I can’t be arsed with any more). I am not a fan.
Like or dislike systemd, be it convenient or not, you can’t deny it’s a behemoth.
Not to mention runit is a few thousand lines of code, systemd is 1.5 million plus. From a theoretical standpoint it’s an extra massive attack surface.
Yeah, LTSC is basically how Windows should be, with less bloatware and security updates only.
Plot twist: Mace Pingu chucks Nvidia out the windu…
That’s a very Tankie opinion…
