The sad thing is, you do not really have a second option, yes I know some distros say they have alternatives, but SystemD becomes the "preferred" init system nearly everywhere now.

I just hope Debian to get rid of SystemD and return to whatever else. I know I'm biased, just failed to find a reason to love SystemD, tried a few times.

I've found that devuan is a joy to use on my laptop.

I'm also rotating BSDs and open source solaris variants on to the home network machines. (Switching to solaris to get rid of systemd would be overkill; I switched to joyent triton for better containers and zfs...)

Devuan has jessie in beta now, at the moment I have not given up on linux yet, am going to try Devuan.
