Alpine Linux Needs Your Help After Equinix Metal Sunset

Alpine Linux's core infrastructure relies on Equinix Metal, which is being discontinued. This impacts their download mirrors, continuous integration, and development environment. To ensure service continuity, Alpine Linux is seeking community help, including colocation space in the Netherlands, bare-metal servers (for mirrors and CI) or VMs, and financial contributions. They highlight the importance of sustainable funding and encourage donations via Open Collective.
