I've used many of these small Linux distros. I used to have Tiny Core in a VM for different things.

I also like SliTaz: http://slitaz.org/en, and Slax too: https://www.slax.org/

Oh and puppy Linux, which I could never get into but was good for live CDs: https://puppylinux-woof-ce.github.io/

And there's also Alpine too.

In what way? Do you mean you didn't get the chance to use it much, or something about it you couldn't abide?

No I tried to use it but it didn't click with me. I had it on cd but I'd normally reach for something else.
