Yes, I know so much of Alpine’s lightweightness comes from not using glibc.
But still, the other options I see are far from being slimmed down. Debian, Ubuntu server, CentOS… They all could use some cuts.
What’s the most slimmed down non-desktop distro that still has a glibc base? I honestly don’t care if it has its own package manager (build tool handles this for me). Just wanna use it in containers for running server apps.
Correct; unofficially and it causes some issues when running a NodeJS app on Musl. @cyclohexane@lemmy.ml you can try another unofficial alpine image, or just go with Debian slim
Don’t recommend that glibc Alpine image please. You can’t just have 2 libc’s and expect everything to just work, it’s just asking for problems. Either deal with Musl or choose a different distro.
