Comments
Flagged Pros + Cons
Pro XBPS (X Binary Package System)
A brand new package manager that is fast, full-featured, and tailored specifically for Void Linux.
Pro Runit init system
An init system with the "do one thing and do it right" mentality. Void Linux does not support systemd.
Pro Very Minimal
More minimalistic than Arch since it doesn't use that bloatware abomination systemd.
Out of Date Pros + Cons
Pro Uses LibreSSL
One of the few distros that uses LibreSSL instead of OpenSSL due to OpenSSL's heartbleed vulnerability.
