A simple and lightweight Linux® distribution based on musl libc and toybox
Probably a long way from being daily-driven, but I really love the idea.

Oh great, another boutique "simple and lightweight Linux distribution". This one will solve all the problems the others don't. Perhaps it's simpler? Or lightweightier?
Oh and it comes with its own glossary of silly names for things so you can feel ridiculous when talking about it too others. Neat.
Almost. It doesn't try to solve all the problems, though. I'd say it's a passion project like Haiku and TempleOS.
TempleOS a passion project? Feels like a little bit of an understatement...
What’s the goal? By the blurb I’d guess it’s a minimal server distro.
From interview: it started as a research project. The author wanted a distribution that uses the least system resources with maximum performance.
He started with archlinux, moved on to gentoo and to go even deeper - found the infamous "linux from scratch" and started to shape his own distro.
There is not much info about the package management.

yash is the default unix shell

First time I hear about yash. What about dash (the only one I heard about in my reply). I see mrsh (minimal shell) exists too and is even strictly POSIX compliant, while yash adds something else? According to the comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18778448
