I use Arch Linux, and have for over 10 years. I don't like systemd, but the documentation is really good and the AUR is pretty amazing. I've never really had any problems with it, and the performance is really good.
I've thought about switching to Void Linux (no systems), but I'm lazy and don't like trying new things as much as I used to when I was younger.
I chose Arch Linux a long time ago because I liked it had i686 binaries instead of i486 like Debian. I had a 32-bit CPU back then. Also it doesn't come with any crap, so that's nice.
I would like Arch to remove systemd.
- RealStickman_ 6y agoHave you tried Artix? They offer OpenRC, runit or S6.
- smabie 6y agoNo I haven't, have you? I've thought about it, but it doesn't seem especially popular.
- flatlanderwoman 6y agoI use it and it works quite fine! Just a few differences you need to learn, all of which are noted on their concise wiki. It's best to think of Arch as the fallback distro, therefore all other information is obtained from the Arch wiki as normal.
- RealStickman_ 6y agoI spun it up in a VM once or twice, but nothing serious yet. From what I have seen it's mostly about the different init systems. Anything else should be identical to Arch and you can use the Archwiki for that.
