I assume you're referring to using lightweight distributions like Debian 9 or 10 slim. I don't often rely on those, but when necessary, they work well for base images that can't support musl c or require features Alpine doesn't offer easily.

The issue is that I don't rely on large containers, so Debian works fine

Alpine helps keep your application small, making image sizes much lower. Heavier distributions such as Debian are usually kept as a backup when compatibility issues arise, like with musl.

Currently, 53% comes from Debian-based, 30% from Arch-based, and the remaining is mostly a hassle within Linux desktop environments. These figures are useful stats I rely on when using Kubuntu for years. For me, KDE outperforms GNOME—GNOME would work on a tablet or phone but is too awkward for desktops. Ubuntu boasts a strong community support, and I’m comfortable with commands like "sudo apt install..." and "sudo dpkg -i ...". Switching to Clear Linux felt like a step forward; it feels much faster than Ubuntu, especially considering its heavy use of AVX instructions. However, it drains the laptop battery quickly and its repository lacks sufficient software, including issues with YouTube playback in Firefox due to ffmpeg licensing problems.

Developers embed their app directly and keep just the main binary inside the container, avoiding extra user files or bloat.
