Try uninstalling sway first then install swayfx. Both sway and swayfx use the same config file.

hyprland uses a specific development branch of wlroots. libwlroots.so.12032. void only accept stable released versions. see this github issue https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/37544

Not likely because of specific wlroots version used by hyprland. I used to build everything from source directly. There is this template available to install hyprland using xbps-src which I have not tried. https://github.com/Makrennel/hyprland-void

You should try again one more time. My distrohop stops with voidlinux when I installed it two years before in my home pc. xbps is really lightning fast.And runit also. Though Im just a casual user my pc and myself likes void linux very much.

Sure. Thanks!

[Gnu IceCat](https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Gnuzilla) is the GNU version of the Firefox browser.IceCat feels a little faster and use around 60mb less ram than firefox.[Gnuzilla-FSD](https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Gnuzilla) version is 60.7.0 released on 2 June 2019. Here in [Void Linux](https://voidlinux.org/) IceCat is regularly updated and the current version is 68.9.0. AFAIK no other linux distros have IceCat available in their repos.A big thanks to Void devs:folded hands:

First I posted that r/linux AMA link to r/voidlinux. It was also removed.
chismoso 4 years ago • 100%
Exactly! This is what Im trying to do. But I like to do it officialy. Thats why I tried to draw Void devs attention towards Lemmy. May be I should create one for this excellent distro.
All other posts in other subreddits by me are also got removed.Voidlinux does not have a forum apart from this https://www.reddit.com/r/voidlinux/. So I thought It wought be nice to have an alternative.

Thanks! I use antix on daily basis. Should say Im only a casual user.Antix is window manager oriented comes with four wm's pre installed in full and base versions.I always use core version and install only what I need.From my use case the winning points are antix specific tools like remaster,frugal install,persistence and snapshot.You can read the details https://download.tuxfamily.org/antix/docs-antiX-19/FAQ/index.html
