  No: "Alpine Linux is an independent, non-commercial, general purpose Linux distribution designed for power users who appreciate security, simplicity and resource efficiency."

    who out there is using alpine as their daily driver desktop? the only time I've ever seen it used is as the base image for docker containers precisely because its so minimal (ie: lower attack surface area)

      pmOS[1] is based on alpine (for phones and tablets). I believe ddvault uses alpine on his daily driver, and sourcehut itself also runs on alpine. I've considered it a lot, but I'm still to attached to service activations and a few other features from systemd --user. [1]: https://postmarketos.org/ https://postmarketos.org/
