I also am on Void since past couple of years. Paired it with LxQt DE for sometime. I didn't have much opinion (or even cared) about systemd (which Void eschews in favor of runit) when I chose it in my distro hopping days. It's lean and clean though package repos slightly smaller than competing ones.

    I had a very good ride with Void for 3 years, a polished distro which taught me to play with init.

    But a lot of GNU packages are not packaged, and lastly I saw a news regarding the distro being split between pro and free version so ...

    I used Antix after that, but AntiX can really get behind on package and kernel version, so I stumbled back on Devuan, and voilà ! With backport, Devuan is really like Debian without the hassle of never knowing if your system us really shut down when you close your laptop (systemd ! 🫵)

    Again, April fools joke. Check the date and also, if you go to the link of "enterprised images" provided, the images are the normal ones

    Ah ha ! Well it was a stupid joke then 😅 my first grievance is still about not packaging GNU software though (exim, mailutils, just on top of my head but etc.)
