@whynothugo An interesting read indeed and makes me want to try #AlpineLinux to see how me a long time #ArchLinux user would get on. Thank you Hugo 😉

@JustineSmithies @whynothugo I came to Alpine Linux after running Arch on everything for over 12 years.

@craftyguy @whynothugo How did you first get on ? I mean looking over repos I don't see things like Hyprland for example. Does Alpine have an equivalent to the AUR ?

@JustineSmithies @whynothugo there is no AUR, but there is a "testing" repo that kiiiinda acts the same way. See Hugo's article ;)

@JustineSmithies @craftyguy @whynothugo With Create Aport https://sr.ht/~martijnbraam/createaport/, pmbootstrap checksum pkgname and pmbootstrap build pkgname (I need to improve my quick description at https://framagit.org/linmobapps/apkbuilds/-/blob/master/README.md, but it might give an idea), I don't really miss the AUR anymore.

@whynothugo interesting article, thanks. Only really used Alpine through docker so far, and it's great for building minimal images, but it's looking more and more interesting as a "main" distro now.
