I have seen so many times that systemd is insecure, bloated, etc. So i wonder ¿does it worth to switch to another init system?

    If you want to try living without systemd, take a look at voidlinux - it uses runit instead. I made the jump from Fedora recently and I love it! Linux is once again the unix system I loved for 40+ years - it’s rational, easy to understand and just works! As an added bonus, I do believe I get about 50% more life out of the battery (less busy-work going on?). What do I miss from systemd? Nothing really.

      Before switching to Guix I ran Void Linux for years. It’s a very nice, light and quick distribution. The BSD of Linux if you will.

      Can very much recommend it.

      The things with init systems is as an average user you don’t really realize they’re there. Whether it’s SystemD or something else and I wouldn’t worry too much about them.
