I just picked Alpine Linux for security and efficiency built in mind out of the box. It still required a lot of configuration, for lowering attack surface and hardening.
I know you asked for a lightweight distro, but from a security standpoint, I recommend using whatever allows you to relock the bootloader. Which looking up I dont see any choice. If relocking doesnt matter, then any distro for speed is basically any distro that comes with as minimal stuff as possible.
I personally use it as a desktop.
I don’t understand, isn’t what makes it a desktop or a server what you want to do with it?
Yes, it is. I have only never seen it to be used for something else then docker images so far.
Android was designed to be an OS for cameras, but was bought by google to make a smartphone OS. Not saying what you are saying isn’t true though.
I did do a lot of configuration actually to it.
Tips and tricks? I want to install on a chromebook I have, only 16gb mmc so a light distro would be great.

Also, I might be wrong so do some research
