I’m between distros and looking for a new daily driver for my laptop. What are people daily driving these days? Are there any new cool things to try?...
I don’t really care either way. I like things to be more minimal, but I’m not really anti-systemd or anything like that. I’ve just been using openrc for a few years now, and haven’t used systemd enough to learn about the homed stuff I guess

Alpine is very lightweight. I think it was built so that it would run well inside docker containers, which means it should be fairly easy for low-end computers to run it.
Afaik, it doesn’t come with a DE out of the box, so it won’t be very user-friendly
I’m slowly but surely working on making a phone with a RISC-V SBC. I installed Linux From Scratch on my Lichee RV board and am now taking a break to get some other stuff in my life taken care of. Once I have some more time I’m going to work on getting a tiny, physical keyboard set up for it.
