Ah reddit the almost unmoderated home of misinforamtion and opinion. And the occasional nugget of truth.
- The recommended OS for all Pi models is Raspberry Pi OS. It's also the best supported especially by the volunteers on here (like me)
- .iso files (and their percieved size limit - which is, I believe untrue) are irrelevant as are .tar.gz files. .img is the format you need and no, rename a .iso to a .img won't change that.
- A tar.gz file may work but only if it contains an apropriate disc image.
- The size of the .iso is largely irrelevant after installation - partition(s) get resized to the available storage hardware.
- Judging by https://artixlinux.org/download.php only x86-64 hardware is supported. Pi do not use x86 processors.
- Void appears to have image files for various Pi but given the date of them they are unlikely to support the Pi 5.
- IIRC Arch has support for the Pi.
