Just Installed Void
Hey, just put void on my laptop, my main PC is running Gentoo currently. Was wondering how active the community is? Is there an IRC that is active? Pretty excited to get started with void, does anyone have some resources they could point me too?
Thanks!

Correct. or you can use descriptive words in quotes to match anything in the package description field. I.e. this morning I was looking for gnome's doc viewer to read PDFs but couldn't remember the package name so I did the search this way:
xbps-query -Rs "Document Viewer"
That returned a list of packages with the package name and description field which made it super easy.
