Artix Linux
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- I'd say Void or Artix with i3 Runit and s6 are just the littlest bit lighter than systemd
- If you want small in size look into Void or Artix
- I switched to artix after this post🥹
- If you really hate musl then try Artix, been using it for a year
- Personally I use Artix and Gentoo, also rolling release but systemd free.
Cons
- Im currently using artix on openrc and i3 But after recent events with aur i would rather switch
- I am currently using Artix, and have been using arch before that. I always used arch based distros on my main pc, since it has so much softwares out of the box thanks to pacman and the AUR. However, I was already growing tired of maintai...
- artix is absolutely not an option since OP is coming from ipados, windows 7, and that OP wants something stable.
- I'm looking for a Linux distribution with runit instead of systemd, preferably on Arch without Artix (I have a personal issue with community scripts).
- I tried Artix (qt community and plasma ) with openrc but the live boot kept having graphical issues and couldn't find a solution so I abandoned ship.

artix or fedora everything (custom install)
It’s stable enough, I think. I haven’t had any issues. I think the entire Arch family instability label is a bit overblown.
