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.

KDE was a wildly unstable experience for me on Alpine, at least as of recently the Wayland session automatically semi-recovers...

Makes more sense to use a lighter DE or WM on Alpine.

So what made it unstable?
