This PR is accompanied by void-linux/void-docs#349. Suggestions for better wording/phrasing welcome. :-)

less fear begs comparison. The original wording for the end of that paragraph was fine.

@Vaelatern: Point taken. My concern with the existing end of that para is that i think "always be up-to-date" can be read as "when you update, your system will always have the latest release of all software", given that all distros are as up-to-date as they can be after updates are released and applied, and this page is discussing distinguishing features.

(i.e. Debian could also say "apply any available updates daily, and your system will always be up-to-date".)

"Install once, update routinely and safely." ?

Void focuses on stability, rather than being bleeding-edge.

Also, I like @Vaelatern 's suggestion for "Install once [...]".

Yeah, i think @Vaelatern's suggestion is better than what i've currently got; happy to change it to that, if others agree.

@ahesford: Oh, good catch re. "than", thanks.

I'm not sure this has a hyphen.
