Kill that with fire

XFCE. it’s dumb, simple, it gives you a panel to access your programs, your desktop icons, and nothing else. I just want my computer to let me do my things, not have a built-in ‘brew a cup of coffee’ button

The Wii U is considered Retro

I haven’t switched to Wayland yet cuz I’m stuck with a GT 710, which only supports the 470 series driver, which… Doesn’t really run Wayland. Hopefully some day, I’ll get my hands on a Radeon GPU and then fully migrate to Wayland, cuz my laptop already rocks it with Sway and, no complains at all

(I know about it having EGLStreams support which only GNOME uses, but it has no GBM support, which… well, all other compositors uses)

AIO has a updater but it is manual by default You need to enable automatic updates yourself, which… Is done through a bash script you need to add yourself into the system crontab

And not only that, the instructions do say things could break and even suggests setting up backups for such

Nouveau sadly doesn’t work for me, it’s abysmally bad performance even on X11

And the new compat layer is new for me, might give it a try

Nope, it has the RJ45 in the side and the RJ11 in the back

“I miss those old ports” is what I’d say, but my laptop has 'em :3

That is fake https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages?name=glibc*&branch=edge&repo=&arch=&maintainer= I have felt for it too, but glibc-full doesn’t exist I have found a package on github though, that claims to add glibc, but whenever I tried to use it to, for example, run the nvidia installer, the entire thing just segfaults

My laptop has a LED that lights up when the caps lock is on I installed a buzzer on it

RJ45 and RJ11

Unlock the password manager

I have been using Alpine as my main desktop system

If you need gaming, or you have a Nvidia GPU, your idea is dead on the water, not having glibc makes nvidia drivers impossible to use.

But that aside, the desktop feels snappy, the system is extremely small so knowing exactly how everything is running/working, and OpenRC is a breath of fresh air compared to the ‘do everything’ SystemD. All pieces of Alpine just does one thing, which makes things really predictable.

Albeit, my path isn’t without hiccups, for example X11 made suspend when the lid closes outright crash X11, so was forced into Wayland And Pipewire, I have to restart it whenever I switch from the computer speakers to headphones or vice-versa

You’ll find some small bugs and small issues, but if you really want a more spartan and simplistic way to handle your linux box, it is amazing

Also, APK is the best package manager, I felt in love with it

If the language can just break during runtime because of code indentation, I can’t really trust it

Poke around with Caddy on bare metal Idk if it is something I was doing or just placebo from my head, but Caddy is a lot faster on bare than Docker in Alpine Tho the drawback is having to manually set-up logging if you need (otherwise g’luck with whatever it decides to throw at syslog)

And due to just being a bunch of scripts, if shit goes wrong you just know why it went wrong

Alpine It just gives me the system and go “do whatever” It’s snappy, decluttered, doesn’t get in the way It doesn’t have a bazillion systemd components, it’s as barebones as it can be

Don’t tell me what to agree with!

Yep

Make it completely ignore indentation
