I ran Alpine on my laptop during the last half of college. It's a great little distro if you don't mind occasionally compiling things.

Fun fact: Gentoo actually uses Alpine docker containers as a base to build their Docker containers.

I got hazed by an upperclassmen with gentoo around that time and it's ruined me ever since. It's just not Linux if I can't edit a text file and rebuild the world.
