if you do the work, sure
i use both alpine and tc regularly, the only two distros i actually enjoy using, and i have often thought there's good overlap in philosophy.

No way. Systemd is evil and contrary to all the principles behind TC, and to common sense.

TCL uses BusyBox init and Alpine uses OpenRC. Neither distro has anything to do with systemd.

I agree with hiro that TCL and Alpine are guided by similar philosophies. I prefer TCL but Alpine is also a pleasure to use. If there were no TCL, Alpine would definitely be my go-to distro.

I apologize. My hatred of systemd made me speak like a fool. I've never tried Alpine, and misunderstood some info I found online.
