Playing with Alpine Linux as a quick way to build, configure and test disposable VMs on proxmox
And I think I really like it. It's so old-school that when you have to learn its way of doing things that every distro does uniquely, it only takes a single search result to a) know what to do, and b) understand how so that you don't have to search again the next time you want to do it slightly differently.
Almost as elegant as FreeBSD!
Allen but one of the good ones
