> Some people say Linux is smaller and lighter than other operating systems, but how small can Linux get compared to others?

Starting with the apparently ancient Tom's Root Boot that fits on a 3.5-inch floppy disk (~1.4MB), they also mention:

Tiny Core Linux - http://www.tinycorelinux.net/

Minimal Linux Live - https://github.com/ivandavidov/minimal

I imagine there are people in this forum who have experiences to share about the topic, their favorite small distros, etc.
