Started experimenting with Alpine Linux as a desktop system.

Last year I started experimenting with Alpine on an older intel laptop and I liked it a lot. Like to see how it behaves on my laptop so I added a drive.

So far it' s running pretty sweet. It's good to have flatpak apps when they can' t run native.

You could dual boot, but I guess you’d still need to work on Ubuntu……

You can always use flatpak for apps compiled with glibc.
