From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It's Arch Linux done right.
It's Arch Linux done wrong. Arch tries to give you the latest software, Void intentionally does not.
I have moved from Arch to Artix after systemd contro, and want to switch to Void. Do you think it's a good choice to run Podman(docker is fine too but would prefer podman) without much hassle?
Yeah podman and docker both run on it no problem.
Sorry, no idea about Podman but docker is fine.
