       @davidcelis how in the heck?  basically nobody gives alpine money and it is the backbone of the modern internet, but some vanity distro gets $12m?do you have any idea what foundational distros like alpine could do with $12m?  it would be game changing.

       @mjdxp @davidcelis a distro which has a hard favor towards a set of opinions the author holds. there's opinionated this and that for everything. it's always very pretentious
