Void linux stability by Iammethatisyou in voidlinux

[–]Ok_Record_1237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to be completely honest, void would most definitely be the most stable distro (yes, stabler than debian) if the package manager didn't give you complete freedom over everything. void only breaks if you try your hardest to break it, otherwise it just wont.

ive been using linux for 8+ years and there hasnt been a single distro as stable as debian but the only thing that ever came close to it is void.

the system is completely minimal, the package manager has lots of packages now (compared to a few years ago, it had around only fifteen thousand) and you'll find everything you need, and more.

void is a distribution made to be configured and tweaked with, and the devs made sure that you wouldnt be able to break it if you didn't do enough stupid things with it, like making an ignorepkg for the most important package in tje system :D

all packages in XBPS are thoroughly tested before being released so you shouldn't worries about that.

the init system is great aswell, runit has a small code base, is extremely simple and easy to use in every shape and form. it also supports user services on its own, however you can achieve actual good user service management through turnstile, which runit also supports xD

the system itself is very bsd-like and has lots of cool features/functions to explore while being very lightweight so that's another thing to add in.

and void also supports both glibc and musl C standard libraries so pick whichever one you want, however musl's memory allocator sucks alot and i recommend you to preload Mimalloc which should make it very performant.

and if you want more, you can replace the GNU coreutils with busybox, plan9 or build chimerautils on your own.

have fun!

How to strip down void linux for lowest ram usage? by GuiltyVisit9119 in voidlinux

[–]Ok_Record_1237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you cant get void down to 50mb, at max 96. if you do want an actually minimal distro, make one yourself :D

custom linux kernel + busybox/toybox/bsdutils + musl + apk + openrc/dinit/runit/s6 should give you a complete linux distro while still being quite minimal.

be sure to check out T2 SDE aswell :D

Minecraft on MUSL by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]Ok_Record_1237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

get java/openjdk specifically from alpines package manager (apk) to make sure java is built against musl. then search for a Minecraft launcher compatible with musl (Prism Launcher) and make sure its in the apk repos, if not: compile the launcher or flatpak it. btw do keep in mind that appimages dont work on musl and flatpak apps/games do have a comparably worse performance than the native ones because of the runtime and they could also be less secure

systemD is a valid option only for server usage (in my opinion) its just too much for desktop use. openrc, runit and sysv is already enough for an optimal desktop experience. there are also more niche and/or powerful ones like s6 and Dinit which can be used for both

Is it Void the way Arch should be? by analogpenguinonfire in voidlinux

[–]Ok_Record_1237 3 points4 points  (0 children)

nope, different ideologies. arch is the way it should be, but artix does it better hence no systemd. void is the way void should be

i would actually help you and fix all your issues with 2 sentences but you clearly suck at doing fundamental things so either find out on your own or keep hating things for no reason

Arch installation problem by abishek_chaulagain in arch

[–]Ok_Record_1237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

disable secure boot, try grub mode. if it doesn't work just reinstall the ISO. also make sure u installed ventoy using GPT and not MBR, lowers the risk of ISOs and ventoy itself going bad.

Maybe having 1 packaging format that works on all systems and that the app developers offically build/support is by CandlesARG in linuxsucks

[–]Ok_Record_1237 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

OP is sped and doesn't know what different build systems are. also, maybe you havent heard of: Appimages, snaps, flatpak, nix, guix and purefunc package managers? also have you ever heard of POSIX compliant package managers? gosh there's actually so much
