Same as a Chimera Linux user I'd definitely recommend trying it. I was a Void user beforee and was Swithering whether to go full BSD when I stumbled across Chimera which gives me the best of both worlds.

I was a serious Arch user for 10+ years when I finally decided to give Void a go on an old laptop. Needless to say Iloved it so much that it is now my daily driver. I even had a blip for a month where I thought I missed Arch but nope I just came running back home to Void. Give it a try you won't be disappointed also take a read of this blog Unmasking the hidden gems of Void Linux

Have a read of the docs at the zathura git repo or use the man pages.

To get neofetch to display river and not sway make sure that you have either lsof or fuser packages installed and it should display river then.
See lines 1902-1903 from this link.

OK I've only come across the command in the example twice whilst looking.
And here where they say it does work ?

One for those running #ZFS on #Linux systems. I realise that you can't have hibernate aka suspend to disk on a swap in the encrypted zpool but if you don't use hibernation then is it OK to use swap using the likes of the command example below to set it up in the encrypted pool? I should point out that I'm thinking of switching from my current Void Linux luks lvm setup to Void with fully encrypted zpool and zfsbootmenu on my ThinkPad P14s AMD Gen 1which has 16Gb ram that I may upgrade to 40Gb. It also has a 1Tb nvme. zfs create -V "${v_swap_size}G" -b "$(getconf PAGESIZE)" -o compression=zle -o logbias=throughput -o sync=always -o primarycache=metadata -o secondarycache=none -o com.sun:auto-snapshot=false "$v_rpool_name/swap"

Nope reduced it down to 10k and still the same but thanks anyway.
I have just tried to change my user avatar from my browser and no matter what image format I try to use be it png or jpg it quickly flashes up some json error. I cannot even change it from the Android app.

Or if you're running Qtile under Wayland then Qtile is the compositor too. My dotfiles and a screenshot are here to show what's possible.

Yes if you run Qtile with X but not yet under Wayland but that is under discussion by the devs as well as other features.
Not perfect but it's mine. Dotfiles can be found here. https://codeberg.org/JustineSmithies/qtile-wayland-dotfiles

Thank you and tbh I haven't attempted to run hyprland on void as I used to run it on arch as my daily. Since switching to void I haven't really looked back and don't feel the need for all the bells and whistles.

You could use swayidle and add a line to use either light or brightnessctl to dim and restore the brightness. Or just as I do turn off display after a certain time. This link should give you an idea. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Sway#Idle

You can either put the sha that you want in the download url:
https://github.com/{username}/{projectname}/archive/{sha}.zip
Or you do it via the github website and click on a commit at the right and then click the two <> which will load that specific commit and click on the download zip file button ( code button ).

Void Linux’s average rating soars high on DistroWatch, making it a must-try for advanced users. Learn why it is winning hearts. https://linuxiac.com/void-linux-topped-distrowatch-average-rating/
Got bored and made a custom `/etc/issue` file for my Void Linux machines. It displays a colour Void Linux logo along with kernel version, tty number and date on login. The file is [here](https://paste.sr.ht/~justinesmithies/2b16b8b77d59ca5d7a575e2fb0a8b27887325cb0) just copy it to `/etc/issue` or you can preview it using agetty. Feel free to change it to suit.
That's me deleted my Reddit account along with all data as I do not agree with recent events that have been taking place. I'm going to concentrate on [Mastodon](https://fosstodon.org/@JustineSmithies) , Lemmy and take a look at Kbin .
I've recently joined lemmy.world and have started searching and subscribing to various communities some are on lemmy.ml but when I search for voidlinux it returns nothing.? Yet I know it exists on lemmy.ml and I can see other communities on there such as Linux. 🤔
