@rl_dane i suppose if this were 2003 and we were using #Knoppix or a similar live CDs on a old dual Pentium 2 then #busybox would be an appropriate choice. 🤣
Randomly wondering: Does anyone know what's going on with #Busybox? The last release is a year and half old, there has been development in Git, including bugfixes (including ones that may be relevant for security, like 3fb6b31c716669e12f75a2accd31bb7685b1a1cb), but there's no sign of a new release. The mailing list is mostly people complaining gitweb doesn't work, and a fix for httpd I sent early this month didn't get any response… ​

After discovering #TiddlyWiki from @jbaty, I went ahead to give #FeatherWiki (lightweight TW fork) a spin as a personal #braindump bin. I really like how it’s just a HTML file at 58kb!

So far, I don't think any OS I've ever run on my laptop has been as responsive as #AlpineLinux. Even running #Gnome, the heaviest of DEs with a buncha #systemd that has to be worked around in a #BusyBox - #OpenRC environment, it was super fast to boot and just quick to use.

I have to imagine that now that I'm moving away from Gnome, it would be even more zippy.

So I'm leaning in that direction.
