That's why God invented OpenSUSE Tumbleweed for all your stable rolling release needs.

Despite its popularity, I've never had much luck with Void. However, I could try it again. 17th time's the charm!

[-] callyral@pawb.social 2 points 8 months ago

what did you have trouble with?

[-] hellfire103@sopuli.xyz 4 points 8 months ago

Just the little things, really. App compatibility, xbps not having too many packages, issues with Musl, GRUB not loading on the LiveUSB, desktop/WM selection, and also I don't like the way Runit works. I could make it work if I needed to, but overall it just seems like too much effort.

[-] LainOfTheWired@lemy.lol 1 points 8 months ago

Void user here. If you're having trouble with musl then just use the glibc base image. As they offer both C implementations.

[-] hellfire103@sopuli.xyz 1 points 8 months ago

The Musl issues were a while ago. The other issues were experienced on the glibc version.

Void is a distribution I keep trying, but I believe I'll be either sticking with the Arch family or switching to Gentoo, openSUSE, or NixOS.

As an Arch User who keeps hearing about OpenSUSE being a more stable rolling release....mind going into it a bit more? I'm happy on my system, mind, but idk, could be I'm missing out on something big for not making the jump. If nothing else, I'll know my options

[-] hellfire103@sopuli.xyz 3 points 8 months ago

Yeah, either openSUSE or Gentoo will probably fix my issues good and proper.

[-] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 2 points 8 months ago

To be frank I went away from Gentoo for much the same reason. And the constant compilation. I only used it once after that for a small project where I needed to minimise what actually lands in the OS.

But all that was years ago.

I use Gentoo. Most of my fstab entries are by partuuid, which works for me.
