It's very early days, but #AlpineBSD has returned some joy of computing to me

Granted, this could also be done with #NetBSD, on which AlpineBSD is based.

But having the tainted repo, where tools like git and curl exist has forced me to consider alternatives. I can install from tainted, but I have it configured that any apps here require me to use apk add git@tainted rather than apk add git so it's a great control measure.

For curl alternative, I'm struggling right now, and if I dare say so, Daniel has been open about LLM use for a long time and is probably the closest we have to "responsible use"

Git however, I can try alternatives, and I'm now using got - game of trees. I barely scratch the surface in my git usage, so got is probably going to be easy to switch to, and so far it's working great. I will use this more often across all PCs I think.

Now, I need to try a new shell... 😬
