    I’ve only installed it a couple of days ago in a vm and It’s pretty good but a couple of things are a bit startling if you’re coming from debian.

    Eg. The lack of niceties like the ll alias. Or The config you have to go through to allow SSH Some utils I’m used to like broot refuse to install properly even though the apk exists. Fz-find doesn’t exist in the community repository.

    But you can’t argue with apk - so much better than apt or how frugal it is re resources.

    Looking forward to getting stuck into it a bit more.

      Have you checked your bashrc file to see if the aliases are just commented out? I feel like it comes standard with bash but not every distro enables it by default.

        That’s the point! It doesn’t come with bash as a shell, it comes with ash - even if you install bash and switch to it, bashrc is empty. It’s a bit bare bones, which is kind of charming, until it’s annoying. Haha!
