In general (there are exceptions) containers do not use service managers at all. They start 1 command and that's it.

Email, Matrix (also with friends and family) and sadly also still WhatsApp...
I mean, it is. RedoxOS is just that. But it's not Linux and that means a lot of things.
I ran transmission and WireGuard for ages before I recently switched my server over to x86, worked fine?
Idk about Sdkman though, I don't do Java development, but if it's written in Java itself I fail to understand why it wouldn't work 🤔
Alpine Linux: uses musl and busybox by default. Extremely lightweight. Some things will not work
I use it daily, which things won't work? Honestly it's "just a distribution", you'll have the same experience with it as OP has with Arch.
You can't seriously call them "countries in North America" though, that's just ridiculous.
Did you seriously just name Denmark a country in North America?!
Alpine Linux has no default DE, I'm not sure what you're talking about. It's up to the user to install a DE.
Immutable distro. I love the concept but don't want to move away from Alpine Linux...
Try Alpine Linux edge
Strange that some apps allow configuring it rather than just doing it automatically...
The reasons for choosing Musl over glibc are largely unrelated for choosing a service manager. You can want one without the other just fine.
