> It's been especially interesting to me to watch Alpine take over the mindshare that Slackware had back in the day.

Slackware lost its way by trying to compete with Ubuntu when it was never it's niche.

Ever since they required Samba installed just to run SMPlayer, and then said the full install is what is expected in every case (When I always used Slackware with a minimal install), I was out.

Void seemed interesting as well but I ran into too many issues - Alpine has been smooth sailing so far.
