New series of posts: "Void Linux for beginners"
Void Linux is one of the best Linux distributions out there: It's not maintained by a company and doesn't even have or want sponsors, so it'll stay on the side of users forever. It doesn't use systemd (that many users hate) as its init system, its package manager is very fast (maybe the fastest around), and it's extremely minimal in the amount of software installed by default (good for CPU & disk, the environment, and user-choice of alternatives), and it's a rolling stable distro.
The downside is that it's not for beginners. You'll often need to read documentation (Void's official documentation does a great job) to get things done, and also end-up asking questions in Void's IRC channel to Void's more experienced users.
I did (and still do) a lot of the asking, so I'm providing the most important information I learned there in this series of blog posts tagged #void_linux.
