Just learned about it recently. It has received a lot of praise as a rolling release distro. Also it uses runit instead of systemd.

It has been praised also for being more stable and better designed than Arch.

And I wonder how it compares to OpenSUSE Tumbleweed,

For this, respins may be worth considering, as that would eliminate that only issue, what with being preconfigured. [Oh, there are more void respins these days than I thought there would be. A dozen! I thought maybe 3.]

Or perhaps revisit voidlinux, to try the XFCE release. Much less to configure than from base.
