Mrat··on Ask HN: Do you still use RSS?
Actually, no.

But I consider it a useful and unexpensive feature so I'll support it on my blog nevertheless.

Mrat··on You should make a blog!
Not OP, neither an Alpine user, but tried it once.

For me, the main selling point of Alpine is that it's not what RMS would call "a GNU/Linux distribution", since it doesn't use the GNU userland. This means, no GNU libc (Musl instead), no GNU Coreutils (Busybox instead), etc.

It became kind of famous thanks to Docker because an Alpine image is (or at least, was) only sized at 6MB.

Mrat··on Systemd-Homed: Systemd Now Working to Improve Home Directory Handling
Hi, Lennart. My question isn't related to what you were answering in this comment but it's related to some problems I have to deal since I'm constantly moving my /home folder from a distribution to another.

I always have to delete files like ~/.local/share/applications/.desktop because otherwise it will show stuff that shouldn't be available in a freshly-installed distribution and it makes me think it's "contaminated"*. I wanted to know how this new implementation deals with those cases.

BTW, congratulations! You made a systemd "hater" like me agree with you. I would be really grateful if this solution made me forget about cleaning up my home before a new install. Have a nice day!

Mrat··on UnGoogled Chromium: Chromium with enhanced privacy, control and transparency
Last time I tried using Firefox i didn't liked it.

But last week I completely moved from Chromium to Firefox.

I didn't miss Chromium.
