Ive been thinking about switching to it :3

I can only say "good luck". It is not an easy distro. Though if the apps you use are available as flatpaks, you may be fine.

Not easy to install or not easy to maintain? Or do you mean like a lack of packages

I think Void is much easier to maintain than Arch. And I was on Arch for 4 years. Runit is super simple too.
