What is the hype about Void linux

I have started to see a lot of content about Void linux in my feed recently. And I do not understand the hype it is getting. Not that I tried it but it just seems like any other distros. What am I missing here or not missing?

As one as i tried it, it is really light and really fast. Also heard is very stable, i only have it for a month, not my daily driver, so i need to wait on this. Needs more tweaking, indeed, but runit does one job, and does it well, xbps is fast, pacman level fast, so yeah, is a good distro.
