I currently use Manjaro as my daily driver, but it is bloatware to be honest. I want to switch to more minimalist distro so i ended up thinking on Void. So any advice? How is package manager? Community? Softwares? Documentation?

I use Void on my laptop (Thinkpad T420) and I am mostly enjoying it so far. The package manager is pretty nice and quick though can be annoying at first having to use seperate programs to install, search, and remove packages though using vpm has made that easier. Using Runit instead of SystemD is weird at first but nice in the end as it’s a lot simpler. Overall I mostly enjoy it and may use it on my desktop if my Arch partition dies.
May I suggest to read https://docs.voidlinux.org/xbps/index.html instead? vpm is a nice wrapper and all, but I highly suggest to get familiar with xbps before using a wrapper to understand how it works and why.
Thank you :)
