@skyjake done 👍
So, now that is out of the way.
I really do like Alpine, probably the fastest, lightest Linux I have ever tried. My current install is 84MB, with a few packages I put in.
I do love the package manager, super clean, but the search either seems broken or just annoying. I found I had to search the online website for packages, as it just outputs a bunch of package names and running apk info on a package usually has little to no info.
As with all package managers in linux, false hits are plentiful, but having to manually check each one drives me nuts. 😂
To install sc, I just guessed, cos it only has a link as the description.
New subspace for Alpine Linux — Hello people. I'm just back to Gemini after having tried on its first days of existence. Happy to see how it turned out :) Anyway, I created a new subspace for Alpine Linux users s/alpinelinux so feel free to join. Thanks for your attention.
