Odyssey Linux: a Void-based rolling-release distribution. No systemd, no telemetry, verifiable supply chain. Unix for human beings.

Has anyone tried this out yet? I’m running it on my trusty ThinkPad and as a Void Linux user, it makes many things just a little easier. It’s very quick. It’s also relatively secure by default and has a control center for enabling more security as well as other optimizations. I know we all like to tailor our DEs and WMs to our tastes and workflows but the defualts here are definitely my cup of tea. It offers KDE as the default but XFCE, Niri, MangoWC, and Hyprland are all options as well. It’s small team working on development and a small community so far but I am hoping that grows.

    I like Void and do use it. I agree that because of its reliability and very good documentation, it is actually pretty easy. You just have to be able to follow directions. I wouldn’t call it beginner friendly though. Not when other mainstream distros have graphical installers that will do a lot of the setup for you. To each their own. That’s the beauty of Linux and open source, freedom.
