things in alpine that have driven some doubt for me for some time:

- the overall governance situation (not fixed, but maybe marginally improving)

- apkv3 file format (i think it is good to use tarstreams, they are not dangerous)

- APKBUILDs just feel obsolete compared to melange

the fact that at least one developer stated that disclosing somebody else's publicly-documented conflict of interest is "doxxing"

i think my conclusion is that i want to build something better instead of continue to be a squeaky wheel that people find annoying

the fact that developers spend 90% of their time toiling with manually bumping packages, and this is why we "need" AI contributions

this stinks. it's bad engineering.

@ariadne Honestly that sounds like an imminently automatable thing, not something you need an AI for though

@krutonium it *is* automatable. i demonstrated how at the previous company i worked for.

@ariadne Then why is ANYBODY spending tokens on that lmao.

@krutonium to do the remaining 10%
