Clean, looks great! I'm curious is this more lightweight than xfce mint (my prefered choice to bring back some life to old notebooks)? If it is why? I understand alpine is best choice to build light container images but I don't know how it behave as desktop

Could you share wp?

i think it is lighter than Mint (Xfce) but i havent used Mint (Xfce) so i dont know how much lighter it is exactly, but it uses musl libc which has a much lighter and cleaner code base than glibc and it uses busybox coreutils instead of GNU coreutils and they are again much lighter it is also using OpenRC instead of SystemD for its init system
