Why link statically against musl? Have you ever faced compatibility issues when dealing with Linux binary executables? The culprit is often the libc implementation, glibc. Acting as the backbone of nearly all Linux distros, glibc is the library responsible for providing standard C functions. Yet, its version compatibility often poses a challenge. Binaries compiled with a newer version of glibc may not function on systems running an older one, creating a compatibility headache.
