<br>> I second the vote for Alpine Linux. My application is a mix of Erlang and Elixir and runs in Docker containers. I use Alpine as the base and I get reasonably sized containers that don't have anything I don't need.

<br>When I looked at Alpine, the Erlang in their repo was too old for me. Do you guys build the releases yourselves, or live with older versions?
