I just found about this distro, which is relatively new (2021). Its specificity is that it doesn't features any GNU software by default, which I find interesting.

Alpine is also GNU-free afaik.

EDIT: Except for the GCC toolchain.

    It's a lot of things-free, to be fair

    Its still amazing how easy it is to use, you can get a desktop environment running in a couple of minutes and apk is insanely fast and easy

    Would have probably tried as my main PC distro if NVIDIA drivers would work on it :(

    Chimera Linux actually uses apk or Alpine Package Keeper as its package manager, they acknowledge this but despite that market themselves as if they did something revolutionary that has never been done before
