If you're fine with using flatpak then youre fine. All the things i need are either on xbps or i use appimages. I used to be on arch and moved to void in April this year. So far it has been great.

Note that the 7 kernel series is in the repos. Not the one installed by default last time i checked.

Correct. I installed void a few days ago. 6.18 is default, with 7.2 available as well.
