  • Underrated comment!

  • Not mine, stole it.

  • It was just a pun, cuz Arch is popular, I use Void actually 😊.

  • Same 😊.

  • Alpine is an advanced user distro. I'm sure there are workarounds for the broken stuff.

  • Yes, you are correct, reliable is the term needed there 👍.

  • Yeah, but no glibc 🤷... some of us need it, and I can't chroot all the time.

  • It's so freaking stable, it's boring 😂.

  • It's more like Arch than Endeavour though, just a heads up. Very little GUI things, especially the installer and all that. Well, the installed is TUI, so It's not that hard to be honest.

  • Rolling release and stable. And no systemd... not by choice though, they're not purists, you just can't build it for musl.

  • Yep, believe it or not, it's probably the most stable rolling release distro out there. I've used it for the past 4, 5 years or so, not once has it broken.

    There are 2 main reasons why this is. One, they don't roll with bleeding edge, they opt for stable, so cutting edge is more like it. And two, they don't have something like the AUR. There is only the main repo and that's it. The approval process for new packages is quite strict and it has to fulfil a lot of requirements, among which the software has to not just build, but also run on i686, x86_64, ARMv5/6/7 and ARM64. And not just on glibc, but also on musl. So basically, all that, times 2. Sometimes it may take up to a year to get new packages approved by the maintainers, depending on how big the package is and how integrated in the system it is.

  • Yep, I use it as a desktop OS. Why is it baffling?

  • Oh, come on, I use Void too, it was just a play on Void 😁.

  • Stability as well. It's probably the most stable rolling release distro out there.

  • I know, it was just play on Void 😊.

  • Nah, it's just play 😊.

    It's better than Arch if you ask me, I use it on all my rigs.

  • Why would that matter? I'm 40, it's not like I've got raging hormones and change opinions every month or so.

  • Actually, I would like to know what being a woman would be like. I suspect the opposite sex would also like to know what it would be like to be a man.

    It's just human curiosity I guess.

  • Why is sucking better than blowing?

    Ummm... not a girl, but I suspect it's easier to suck things out of it than blow into it...
