From time to time I like to try out other distros and this week I am running Void Linux on my laptop. Must say it is far better than when I last used it. Installation is very easy and repos hold everything and more than you will ever need. Soon had it loaded with Plasma, … Avoiding Arch this week….
Have just updated iso image, last one of 2022. No major changes from last week just updated packages and kernel.
