Void Linux is a great rolling release and independent general purpose Linux distribution that uses the X Binary Package System (XBPS) package manager, which was designed and implemented from scratch. It uses runit as the init system and service supervisor, which is a simple and very effective approach to initialize the system with reliable service supervision contrary to something heavy and bloated like systemd. Void Linux supports both the musl and GNU libc implementations, patching incompatible software when necessary. https://unixdigest.com/articles/void-linux-a-great-and-unique-linux-distribution.html
