I don't know what "regular users" means. I write new Alpine packages often, you shouldn't expect everything to already be there - especially with respect to GUIs. If you're not prepared to do that (and you should be, imo), Alpine may not be for you. I love it, though, it's simple and efficient, and doesn't get in my way.

"Regular users" for me means someone who doesn't want to fuss too much with a desktop system; I use Fedora (or Debian until recently) because I want to spend my time administering my servers, not my desktop system that is the interface to those servers. "It Just Works" If it comes highly recommended, though, I'll give it a shot. OpenRC really is a thing of beauty and that's the one thing I miss from Gentoo.
