I went from an Ubuntu to an Alpine desktop and it was like bolting on a turbo. You know that rush when the turbo spools up and then it just plants you in your seat and you rocket away? Like this wasn't just "I think it's faster", I was like laughing and shouting it was so much faster. It doesn't seem quite as fast now; I feel like I must have added on enough extra software and crap now that it's close to where it was before. But the feeling when bringing up the desktop for the first time was visceral.
