But at least you don’t need to use a stupidly long argument to start it (I know both don’t really have support but sway runs it in your face even more than normal) because you can’t quite be as choosy with laptops as you can be with desktops…
Or just tell you to configure something (or not mention that the specific config setting actually exists despite it sometimes being quite crucial) but not exactly how and you have to look through a bunch of the info boxes to find the correct link to the manual of the specific program/tool to see how the config file should look before you can continue on the wiki.

This might be a bad place (i.e. post, the community is correct), but looking at the void has got me interested so I wanted to ask: What are the main advantages of using runit compared to systemd? Like I don’t want to know all the differences (of which there are apparently many since people complain about systemd being too “bloated”/spread out over different systems?)
Also in all the “typical” discussion on systemd vs runit plenty of people talked about serious problems with runit and sometimes said something or other about process security? Is that substantiated in any way (as in “yeah technically during the boot process runit could be vulnerable to X if executing an unsafe script while systemd can’t do that because it does Y instead” or is it more like “yeah no, people just claim X when it’s not really possible or systemd also has the same problem, they just don’t talk about it”?)
(Hopefully this doesn’t turn into yet another thread about people bashing each other over this choice since that usually leads to no information being really trustworthy unless one wades through tons of long posts external to the thread…)
