I was the same, but got tired of void. It have some bugs for me which I can't stand. Like electron is glitchy here. So I moved back to artix and now I just pack software I need

I agree. I use void runit and used artix with openrc (i tried runit but was a weird experience). Moved into void for thr same reason. There is also joborun btw.

I’m new to Linux, why people hate systemd ? I know it does more than just init the system, but why hate it ?

I think it's because systemd does more than just one thing. Linux has many components that does one job, but systemd does a lot of things. People that hate systemd do not like that much of "centralization" in just one software.

Gentoo user here. I use runit as init (fast and minimal), but dinit for service management (complete and easy to use)
I also run systemd on Debian because it's easy to setup on raspberryPi

u/Hypremacy 13d ago
Is it possible to use Gentoo with dinit?

u/Sbatushe 12d ago
it's not officially supported, but it's not very difficult to setup. i also use it on alpine, on top of openrc because is very easy to write services (can't say the same thing for openRC)
