I really like alpine linux's goals i.e. Install only the things which are absolutely necessary on a hardened system. But as desktop you are seriously limited by its dependency on musl, Most common apps are dependent upon glibc and so you'll have to compile it against musl if that's even possible. So the point being, We have secure desktop OSes but how much productivity are we ready to give up for that?
