I’ve been using it as daily driver since four or five years now. At first it was a bit difficult, we had to wait for patches for musl a lot for common desktop binaries. But now I don’t even remember waiting for an update and I don’t have to compile some tools myself anymore. Everything is in the repo. Yes i agree, I don’t need much, it just works flawlessly with River + Foot + Firefox + Helix and I try to keep it minimal. No games, not much graphical tools. apk is such a magical tool. Never broke my edge install with it… Like Arch did with AUR. And the last install that I did recently on a remote server was just so easy with ‘setup-alpine’… Way better than five years ago. The only drawback is the documentation I think… I’m using the gentoo one, which is perfect for Alpine.
