Why aren't you upgrading from Arch GNU/Linux to Alpine Linux?

>the base system in Alpine Linux is designed to be only 4-5 MB in size (excluding the kernel). This allows very small Linux containers around 8 MB in size, while a minimal install to disk might be around 130 MB.

Upgrade your loli first

Because Arch is an established OS and I don't have to worry about the hobbyist developer of my OS quitting due to depression. As a bonus it also has good documentation and an active community.

because I don't use gnu/lincuck as a daily driver.

Alpine Linux is not a GNU distribution
It does not use the GNU libc or GNU coreutils

all GNU, all required to have a working distro, if you want GNU free your only option is to switch to BSD

>>51995984
Alpine does not install any of those by default.

I use void (+musl) on my Raspberry Pi, tell me OP, are there any reasons for me to switch? I'm barley using 5KiB memory. Is alpine more stable?

>>51996271
Alpine compiles all binaries as Position Independent Executables with stack smashing protection and uses a security hardened kernel by default
