Honestly I wouldn't recommend Void as the first Linux distro, but if you insists, go ahead.

>I don't want people spying on me on ubuntu
That hasn't been the case in quite some years.
>I don't want bloat
It's worth it if it's your first Linux experience.
It's not broken, but it surely is poorly documented. Ever since their forums went down, it's definitely considered a more difficult distro to maintain than Arch. 0 documentation, small community which all fundamentally bring their own downfalls. You really have no reason to install Void.

arch is the least difficult to maintain distro
confirmed by: youtube.com/watch?v=6bsNIdYw5Ak

honestly luke drove me away from arch

>I don't want people spying on me and I don't want bloat
They aren't spying on you and you can uninstall what you don't want. Manjaro is more bloated than ubuntu it comes with steam and libreoffice

why?

l-lukuru ch-chan desu?

>but it surely is poorly documented
>0 documentation
So man pages, wiki, docs.voidlinux.org and the irc channel are not documentation?
>You really have no reason to install Void
I agree that Void might not be the best distro for most people but I've had next to none problems while using it.
What really helps with tech in general is knowing how and where to search for information.

if anyone is curious im currently installing it now everything has gone well so far, I thought my wifi wouldn't be compatible or something but it works, ill keep everyone posted, I hope ill see you in desktop threads with my comfy desktop

Obviously, yes; there is literally documentation for Void. However, we're talking about a newcomer for their first experience with Linux. Wiki is laughably deprived, docs assumes the user is already knowledgeable with the various aspects of Linux that would be alien to Windows users, and the IRC is slower than ever (small community doesn't help).
Void is truly a hobbyist distro for those who have fallen for the arguable systemd or minimal meme which, again, would be irrelevant for a newcomer.

You sir are a fucking brainlet nigger monkey. I use void as my main distro for about half a year now and I never had a problem with xbps and the repositories.

Glibc 64bit works for me.
Musl arm... Not really

I've distro-hopped a lot and not only was void easy to install and use but it's fantastic because the Devs are not brainlets and there's no systemd or much bloat attached to it. Would recommend. It's my go-to Linux distro even if I prefer OpenBSD.

How the fuck did you break your void...

DO IT!
Don't fall for the Arch meme. If you don't want bloat you certainly don't want Arch or any of its derivatives. Compared to Void, Arch is a fucking pile of useless dependencies (ex.: Vim needing fucking 4 different interpreters) and bloat.

actually this
KDE neon is a great distro

I DID IT GUYS
I DID IT WEWEWWWEW
well I did it user, I did it all by myself, feels good man and Installed my first package
yeh it was relitively easy to install

Attached: wew lads.png (1280x1024, 228K)

Proud of you user.
You can join the big boy Arch and Gentoo users when you learn the terminal and file structure. Also, VM them first.

Confirmed

nice, Void has plenty of packages considering the size of the community, but there might be a few that seems missing like netbeans (Java IDE) but that could just be nickpicking
you may also want to learn how to use runit, it's rather simple anyway, you'll figure it out, it's on the Void's wiki

Why not Guixsd or Sourcemage? are you retarded?

Not a hard distro, desu. I'd recommend it over Debian for a newb. Well, only because you have to fight with Debian a lot more.

why the fuck would one install arch if he already uses void? fucking brainlet

Nice.
Now install NixOS

GuixSD is for retards who eat their own toe jam. Why the fuck would you recommend that meme distro to anyone? It's even more of a cancer than Arch, if such a thing is possible.

>recommending arch to someone using void
lole

Good job user.
Lxqt is a good choice for a DE but its still "unfinished."

Later give KDE and XFCE or a TWM a try. Just don't let us catch you using Gn*me.

guix is the best package manager of these days

don't listen to that brainlet OP, Void is a great distro. documentation isn't as up to snuff as Arch or Ubuntu, but that's hardly a problem. the Arch wiki and google can cover probably 90% of what you want to read about when you have trouble. anything else, just ask here in the friendly linux thread or in void's irc channel. glad you decided to try Void

well from just playing around with void tonight it seems like you can look at the arch documentation or any of the documentation and figure out what the void equivalent would be, at least after you install it, the documentation for the install is pretty good though and there are some good tutorials on YT, honestly though I think I just miss trying to figure out how to do things with a computer, like when I was a kid I just used to tinker with computers all day but windows has become so straight forward and bloted that its just boring, like windows 7 used up 2.5 gigs of ram just to listen to music and browse the web but im only using 500 MB now

understood friend, that's why i love linux, you can still tinker and have fun and figure out how to do things and it's a mostly customizable environment, it's yours

>arch is the least difficult to maintain distro
For the maintainers. Only the maintainers matter in Arch, the users are just cattle
Not a great choice with the forum down, but great distro nonetheless

That better be musl

I like it but it plays weird with some gtk apps like libreoffice and pozfox. what's the deal with that? I bet its the whole QT5 thing but I don't understand the underlying concept behind any of it.

look i made the same mistake just don't senpai. It's not bad but it's definitely not beginner friendly especially if you have certain hardware. Install KDE Neon, an ubuntu variant, fedora, mint or something else. xbps is great but the wiki is outdated on some stuff which will make it difficult to maintain.

because he cares about 4channel (you)s on w/e desktop wallpaper thread he's trying to flex on. That's the only reason some random faggot would JUST NOW hate arch.
This is what happens when a board's culture revolves around materialism and thinly veiled name fagging, people get cucked into trying to appease fellow Jow Forumsedditors.
Try Xubuntu and work on it until your workload requires another distro (full freedom, bleeding edge, real time kernels, source compiling, lower system utilization, selinux, mass hypervisor workloads, btrfs, specific repos). Each distro fulfills different needs which is only determined by how you need your computer to function.

It's not, it should have been x86_64-musl. But regarding musl, i installed the musl version on one of my older computers and programs like mednafen give a segmentation fault error in the terminal when trying to load the ROM and then crashes. Any ideas?

Most programs are not yet written for musl and can run into errors

Congratulations!
Now you can pretend you're a 1337 hacker by using terminal-based applications like Lynx and Mutt.

based

OP, why Void? Did you fall for the muh systemd meme? At least go for Arch or something.

void is good
feels like a bsd using the linux kernel

Attached: 2018-12-19-1545259795.png (1366x768, 1.4M)

void is dead and vulnerable
no forums either

>jap with a gun
Thats how I know your picture is a shoop.

the founder was a netbsd dev

Ignore the autismals, Ubuntu is not bloated and does not spy on you.

the IRC channel is not documentation.
the wiki and docs site are both half-assed in comparison to the documentation provided by Debian/Devuan, Arch, or Gentoo.

You don't really need anything void-specific except for xbps and runit and they're well documented. For everything else the arch wiki does its job just fine.

before you install it for real, install it in virtualbox and familiarize yourself with the system and test it out.

so many idiots have installed it on a whim, and they ALWAYS come back complaining....

>4790K and GTX970
That shit was such a meme setup back in 2014 but it performed great for the money.

level 1 wizard confirmed!
start growing that gnu-beard son

I installed it on bare metal on my first try and I'm not complaining you idiot

its true, I like getting some (you)'s, but thats not the reason I installed Void over Arch, I picked Void because the few people that do use it seem to love it and the people that use Arch seem like they're constants frustrated with Arch.
yay I've got a bunch of terminal applications installed now and my PC doesn't waste tons of memory, which is part of the reason I switched
I don't know enough about linux to hate systemd, I just picked Void because the people that use it seem to really like it, from what I understand its a bit more bare than Arch as well and having everyone tell me to install Arch really put me off
nice (((jews))
not sure if you saw my post but I already installed it on my ssd lol , I have no complaints, it was easy everything that hasn't worked I fixed
I't still works great today, I can play all the gaymies I want

There are only 4 distros worth using (in no particular order);

1) Ubuntu for babys first linux
2) Fedora for sanic speed and bleeding edge
3) Dedian for servers that never, ever go down
4) Gentoo for the hand-tuned experience

While honourable mention goes to RedHat nobody on Jow Forums is a srs bsns user and as such Redhat does not qualify. All other distros are for plebs or toasters. Still, gotta love puppy linux for the kawaii logo and niche use case.

what software will you need in your install? getting it on void could be difficult
also, I think Falkon is a chromium fork, you might want to install firefox or qutebrowser instead

Installed void on a new laptop I got a few days ago and I've been enjoying it, no problems so far. All in all seems like a pretty decent distro 2bh.

look at this stupid nigger spewing shit he doesn't understand.
There's only 4 operating systems worth using
>gentoo
>devuan
>void
>openbsd

Puppy is fucking based, modern SSDs still cannot touch my Athlon X2 with 4GB 800MHz DDR2 from 2008 with Puppy 4.2.0

I don't see Sabayon on that list user which makes your list invalid.

Puppy is based but really isn't intended as a permanant solution.

the only actual useful distro is slackware

It is not but an OS you can run in ram with a decent web browser is extremely useful for booting on computers without hard drives.

Slackware is only used by people who consider Dilbert relevant and find the flying spaghetti monster amusing.

well I wanted to install palemoon but I cant quite figure out how to, theres a tutorial on their website but its for debian but I'm assuming its similar because you just have to download a .tar file and extract it but for some reason when I run the command "palemoon" it say the command doesn't exist also for some reason after I installed ranger Falkon just crashes whenever I open it so I'm using surf until i can get pale moon working

that's why

don't bother with palemoon, you'll sacrifice on security for basically nothing

>that's why
Suspenders are mandatory huh?

the only reason I'm not going to continue using surf is I can't play youtube videos, unless theres some package I can install to get it to work

Dont fall for the gentoo meme, try manjaro

I just tried downloading and running it and it seemed to work fine. Perhaps some unfulfilled dependency?

As your first Linux I would use something easy.
Like Ubuntu, Elementary, Fedora.

If you don't want such an easy distro, try Debian, but please not Void.

shit, meant for

Do it! And when you finish, install GNOME!

yeh its probably something like that, ill try to find a list of dependencies
its too late , why would you not recommend void though?
no thanks I don't want to get gnomed by my DE

lmao imagine pozzing gentoo with freedesktop and pottering garbage and calling it a distro

>why would you not recommend void though?
It's pretty hard, if you don't have any Linux experience.
But on the other side: If you are interested in Linux, you will manage it!

If you have questions, Google normally gives you the right answer.

Nice job user. Going from W7 to void isn't a switch most people are into. You took a bumpy road and went through it without getting turned off by Linux distros.

how come void killed they're forums?

OP what software will you use in your void laptop

server's down

I've been wondering this also. A few things I've searched for have turned up results on their forums, which seemed to be down.

No U - you and I both know Sabayon is Gentoo made usable outside of highly tuned niche deployments (which should be using LFS instead).

yes but do you have fulldisk encryption

>he went with the brony distro
laugh at this retard

it is?

Is this not the distro where the owner mysteriously disappeared, the domain name was changed and taken over, and the (((freenode))) chat was taken over? Do that not strike you as suspicious?

Attached: ponysay.png (733x676, 17K)

I run arch. It's pretty good so long as you don't care about systemd and don't mind that your system won't be as lean as void. The main advantage is the aur and increased support.

What does orange-frog has to do with mlp?
