Is it even feasible to provide gnu binaries? I only upload statically linked musl binaries as Linux releases for my cli stuff.

- follower 2y ago> Is it even feasible to provide gnu binaries? It depends on one's definition of "feasible", I guess. Building against the "most recent glibc pushed by GitHub" doesn't make it feasible but building against an older glibc (which you can still do on a container which is otherwise using a recent glibc) is at least somewhat feasible. The primary benefit from building against musl is that it "coincidentally" means that even the people who don't care at all about supporting older systems end up doing so "accidentally" due to their desire to use musl (for, presumably, some other reason).
