I use Void's runit every day (and the PID1 once every 5 to 30 days when
I reboot. I have the distinct impression that the Void folks made Runit
more complicated than it needs to be. In an effort to kinda-sorta
implement something like "runlevels" (which I never saw value in
anyway), they have symlinks to symlinks, to the point that it's hard to
know where the real file is.

This becomes a problem for me,  when I need to figure out exactly where
to put the one needed symlink (the one in the service directory) when I
add a daemon. So if anyone comes away from Void thinking runit is
complex, well, it *can* be but doesn't need to be.
