I used Slackware as my main distro some time ago.
My experience:
5 minutes booting. 20 minutes compiling stuff from Slackbuilds. 10 minutes using those.
And that in a fast day.

When I first read about Void Linux, I was so excited, but I found the package-manager so counter-intuitive, from what I was used to, that I ditched very fast. Writing this, I think, I should give void another try, maybe today the documentation is more accessible for me :)

As a guy who never tried Alpine, what makes APK good?
