From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Its possible to install glibc on Alpine. https://hatchjs.com/alpine-linux-install-full-glibc/
That is fake https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages?name=glibc*&branch=edge&repo=&arch=&maintainer= I have felt for it too, but glibc-full doesn't exist I have found a package on github though, that claims to add glibc, but whenever I tried to use it to, for example, run the nvidia installer, the entire thing just segfaults
Sorry for the bad link, I will be more careful for the next time.
In the official website, the glibc page was updated with a new glibc layer. You can also check if you have "nouveau" drivers for Nvidia.
Nouveau sadly doesn't work for me, it's abysmally bad performance even on X11
And the new compat layer is new for me, might give it a try
