Examples could be things like specific configuration defaults or general decision-making in leadership.

What would you change?

    For Arch Linux:

    • support a different process supervisor
      • dinit, or
      • s6 with some high level sugar
    • don’t use Bash anywhere
      • port down to POSIX, and
      • port up to Zsh
      • port minimal launchers to execline
    • replace PKGBUILD format, maybe with
      • nearly identical but Zsh
      • NestedText containing Zsh snippets
        • use this to render Zsh based on templates
          • my favorite template engine: wheezy.template
    • build packages with more optimizations, like the CachyOS repos
    • include or endorse something like aconfmgr
    • port conf files to NestedText

      I couldn’t agree more with this, projects like artix are undermined by all the hard dependencies on systemd and Bash.

      Void attracted me because of the support for posix, runit and musl (plus good zfs support). It’s unfortunate that Arch doesn’t have that greater portability.
