“Alpine is not a project you host lightly, with a monthly transfer of about 800TB.”

Equinix Metal is shutting down and taking donated hosting from Alpine and Freedesktop.org with it. Alpine moves about 800TB a month. Freedesktop hosts X.org and Wayland. Companies build products on both and leave the hosting to charity.
