I know new distros pop up like mushrooms, but this one has a particular angle and level of care that I think might interest many of you — both experienced users and those who want a ready-to-use system.

It’s called Odyssey. Void-based, rolling, no systemd. An optimized kernel à la CachyOS, browser running in RAM, a bulletproof supply chain (https://odysseylinux.org/security.html) you can verify yourself, and much moer. https://odysseylinux.org/features.html

Take a look: https://odysseylinux.org/

Stable release lands in early August — the beta is already available. I hope you’ll find it interesting.

    so it’s like VOID

    • rolling release
    • no systemd, yay! That’ll be faster and probably better-built
    • ‘make my own’ packaging scheme

    but on top of that it builds

    • kernel optimization
    • RAM-tuning for browser
    • ‘make my own’ supply chain

    Let’s hope the homebrew supply of homebrew packages isn’t a SLSA-fail. I’ll give it a go just because it’s a post-systemd linux.
