@thesaigoneer@social.linux.pizzaFor KDE I've recently settled on Alpine Linux. I've been around the block on Plasma and I can assure you it is one of the best out there. Couple that with blazingly fast mirrors, LUKS encryption, flatpaks and setup scripts and you have a winner. Not for beginners, but absolutely worth a go. Recommended!

@thesaigoneer@social.linux.pizzaJust did a basic lookup. Alpine had Gnome 50 available in the community repo from the 17th of March. Howzat?! Hidden giant!

@thesaigoneer@social.linux.pizzaAs said before musl-based AlpineLinux really rocks. Of course running all required stuff, like a full KDE session, a firewall and podman (for distrobox), flatpak for all 'bigger' applications and still clocking in at 903Mb. For me that shows how lean everything has been put together. Cool.

@thesaigoneer@social.linux.pizzaYou have that gnarly application that only comes in rpm, deb and AppImage. Then you suddenly remember Distrobox. And AlpineLinux is made for these setups. Tests finished, I'll finally be able to run KDE with all my required apps on Alpine! #alpinelinux #archlabs
