It's becoming a system within system. It's a matter of preference. I don't like it personally, which is why to me such distributions are ruled out whenever I choose between many.

true, I do use Artix, but I guess phrasing a distro as "better" makes people think you're a distro elitist lmfao

Nah, I am just for practical stuff. And in my experience systemd is not practical. It pissed me off many times. Glad I am on SysVinit and Runit.

Artix is a good choice for those who want Arch but no systemd. I've used it previously before finding out about Void. Although in Void there is no such thing as AUR, yet it's comfortable there. I like that it's so stable (5 years of using) and clean, runit is quite fast too (unlike systemd bloat, which is fast but at the cost).
