I drive an e-up! and use Alpine Linux btw. Both gets the job done without too much fuss or unnecessary bloat.

You use Alpine as a daily driver? With a GUI? How does it do with hardware support?

I use it on a Thinkpad x60s where Alpine has a lot better support for such old hardware. But I use an arm based chromebook with PostmarketOS more often (also Alpine based). At work it's either Alpine or NixOS for headless servers.
