I use Alpine Linux as a daily desktop. I use swaywm and foot, sometimes LibreWolf for browsing. I’m mostly using the command line with some TUI’s so it’s a very minimal system.
I found out I really enjoy POSIX scripting so that’s how I choose to spend my spare time. I try to make scripts that make using the CLI environment easier to use.

If you are interested, I have a script that can setup Alpine on a desktop with full disk encryption. I didn’t figure out how to do it, I just made the script easier to use. https://codeberg.org/taters/Alpine-Linux-Install_Full-Disk-Encryption_LVM
I also use it for two Raspberry Pi devices. I think the minimal environment is good for a server. Less complexity and attack surface to think about.
I’ve learned a lot about computers and the operating system with Alpine, it’s been a fun experience.
I tried to run Genshin Impact on Alpine once. Did not succeed.
Never got Genshin working on any distro, even the “anime game launcher” launcher
I have it running right now on Fedora using lutris. Standard install, no weird steps or anything. Lutris is flatpak.
