What's the deal with Alpine not using GNU? Is it a technical or ideological thing? Or is it another "because we can" type distro?

I don't know if people use it on desktop but with its minimal size it's convenient as hell for docker images that don't need a lot of dependencies installed

I used it on a laptop for a while. Pretty impressive just how lightweight it is, but a bit of a grind to initially get everything working as expected. Overall, I'm a big fan.
