I tried Alpine for a desktop installation. The package manager has surprisingly decent package set. And the performance is the best I found, for some reason applications starts faster.
But I had to stop the experience because websites thats includes widevine didn’t work.
Its sad to say, but many softwares relies on non-standard glibc shit.
With glibc instead of musl Alpine can be simply the best distro. If musl is not faster that glibc I don’t think glibc will make Alpine slower.
